| Balloon 713 in Metro Coastlines livery, northbound at the Tower in April 2008 |
713 was the last Balloon to be completely rebuilt, prior to 720 which received widened platforms (but has seen little use) and 717 which was a heritage rebuild. The four preceding heavily rebuilt Balloons had all been completed with rather unflattering flat front ends, thus eliminating all vestiges of their streamlining. 713 was like a breath of fresh air when it emerged, comprising a fully rebuilt body that still retained the classic 1930s streamlined appearance. The tram has received several colour schemes over the years, including a few iterations that were mostly white.
