Description

Spring 2015: News from the Blackpool Tramway from spring 2015 with the commencement of the brand new Heritage tram service. Balloon 717 was first, used on a Dine and Ride event and then it’s the four-day Easter Weekend. With the new 'Gold' service using six trams at once, the likes of 40, 66, 147, 227, 230, 700 and 706 are all filmed; Hollywood came to Blackpool in early May with the shooting of a major production outside Blackpool Tower. The tram service was split with Flexitys turning back at North Pier and 711 and 719 were used on a special Starr Gate - Manchester Square shuttle; There's full coverage of the May Day and Spring Bank Holiday weekends with a mini feature on 715 which returned to service after five years. Footage includes cars 600 and 701 as well as 642 and 648 and various trams running to Fleetwood. (97 minutes)
