Flexity 002 was on driver training again on its second day of post commissioning use on Tuesday 11th December. The only day that 002 has been used in passenger service so far this year was on the second day of Flexity operation on 5th April, 002 had been in use on driver training earlier that day, but was unexpectedly pressed into passenger service as an extra from Starr Gate to Bispham and return in the afternoon. The photo below shows 002 on its only day of passenger use this year on the special to Bispham on 5th April, the tram was displaying the unusual destination "Bispham Station", although as usual the camera shutter has not fully captured the indicator display.
