The day Blackpool Transport or Blackpool Council do work that doesn't require complete replacement would be an absolute miracle

Over here in Blackpool, Disabled can use ENCTS for 50p before 09:30 & free after this time until 11pm, no restriction at Weekends & Bank Holidays, OAPs not valid before 09:30, but free after this time until 11pm & no restrictions at Weekends & Bank Holidays.

There was a route from North Pier to South Pier via Clifton Street, Abingdon Street, Church Street, Whitegate Drive, Waterloo Road, Lytham Road & Station Road. This was known as the Marton Route. Another route was along Dickson Road to Gynn Square & called at the old Blackpool North (now...

I live in Blackpool & to my knowledge the tram tracks on all the closed routes are still under the tarmac & in several locations where the road surface is worn out, the track can still be seen.

I was wondering how long it would take before an accident would occur.

Is it because Blackpool doesn't have Ticket Machines at the new Stops? --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?sn24x3

yes they did driver9000. I think the line branched off at Talbot Square, up Clifton Street, right onto Abingdon Street & down Church Street. Also, I think the amount of work required to remove the tracks wasn't cost effective, so they are still there. --- I am here...

The Conductor on my journey from Fleetwood to Cleveleys went out of his way to be helpful, one family thought they had to pay for each individual, but he advised to get a day ticket, so you could get better value for your money & seemed to be enjoying his job. It is completely different with...

I am Blackpool born a bred. Although not old enough to remember the lines that are closed, but do know that from Talbot Square by North Pier, the lines are still under the road surface & go up Talbot Road towards Blackpool North & then along Dickson Road to Gynn Square on the Promenade. This...

Been on a Tram from Fleetwood to Cleveleys and it was full. I get the feeling that the new Trams could be the best thing that has happened. It certainly felt nice and smooth & was more comfortable than the Heritage fleet or any Bus. I would certainly travel on the Trams again. --- I am...

Is it more about the new trams wheelsets rather than the sand? --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?yguzez

I don't wish to be flippant, but after all the infrastructure work & building new trams, why wasn't it ever thought that this problem would occur & what would be the best solution for the longterm? --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?u0fwzn

Wonderful start on first day of running! A tram has derailed in Fleetwood! The cause being sand being blown into the rails & the tram wheels not being deep unlike those on the heritage fleet. --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?znr1bj

My mistake, it was heading away from Blackpool near Kirkham.

On Tuesday afternoon I saw a Leyland PD3 being towed along the M55 near Kirkham, the said bus had most of its bodywork missing, but was painted in dark red & white. Does anyone know who owns it & the reason it was on the M55?

That seems to answer everything thanks.

Which one is all-over White with door mods?

It was on Blundell Street adjacent to the Blackpool Transport offices & was Balloon Car 720, painted White.

May have been a training exercise for the Fire Brigade.

Not 720, it was in a Light coloured advertising livery, maybe White, Cream & Gold.
