Balloon 715 and newly repainted Standard 147 passing each other near Manchester Square |
Thursday 5th April dawned bright and sunny in Blackpool, and as newly repainted Standard 147 was rostered to be one of the two trams on the midweek Heritage Tours that day, the chance had finally arrived to get some some sunny shots of this tram in action.

Thanks for posting these photographs, they are evocative of my childhood holidays in Blackpool. "Green and Cream" beasts patrolling the prom, still going today!
ReplyDeleteNo problem, it was nice to have clear clue skies for a change.
