Heritage Trams In Blackpool & Fleetwood - Good Friday (2014)English Electric at Easter, celebrating the 80th anniversary of the streamlined fleet, was the theme for the first Heritage Tram Tour of 2014. Six different heritage trams were in service, and there was a photo opportunity outside the Rigby Road Depot on Blundell Street to film the four flat-fronted balloons. Our footage (Dad contributed a small number of clips) includes locations at Bispham, Little Bispham, the Promenade, and Fleetwood. In the order that they were seen were balloon 700, Bolton tram 66, open boat 230 'George Formby OBE', open top Balloon 706 'Princess Alice', open boat 600 'Duchess of Cornwall & Standard 147.By Joseph Grice - .
