The opening of the UK’s newest section of tramway in Blackpool is the subject of this week’s set of photos:
Photos: Blackpool Tramway – North Station extension opening
There are updates this week to the Blackpool Tramway (photo links), Crich Tramway Village (photo links), Edinburgh Trams (new adverts), Heaton Park Tramway (last operated dates and photo links), Manchester Metrolink (new adverts and photo links), Seaton Tramway (last operated dates) and Tyne & Wear Metro (new trains delivered) Fleet Lists along with the Edinburgh Trams (new adverts) and Manchester Metrolink (new adverts and photo links) Advert Lists.
It may have been much delayed and the timetable being operated may not be what everyone had hoped for but Sunday 16th June finally saw the Blackpool Tramway extension to North Station open to the public (after several days of pre-opening tours). The very first tram to run the public timetable was Flexity2 015 which is captured here leaving North Station at 0730 on 16th June. (Photograph by Steven Hughes)
