Blackpool Transport • Part 1
Blackpool Transport • Part 1
Blackpool's tramway was, for many years, the only municipal system in the UK which survived the cull of the 1950s and 1960s. This section records the main fleet at Blackpool through the years, including OMO Cars, Boats, Brush Railcoaches, Centenary Cars, Twin Cars, Balloons and Jubilee Cars.

OMO car 1 runs along the promenade towards Starr Gate in December 1978. The thirteen OMO cars were rebuilt from English Electric Railcoaches 608-620 during 1972 to 1976.
