Notes:
Some of these trams are due to be displayed at the proposed museum at Copse Road in Fleetwood for which a Lottery grant is to be applied for soon. They are all currently stored with no public access across three different sites with the majority split between a yard in Fleetwood and Kirkham Prison.
Brush 290 is now on display by Pleasure Beach loop and has been converted into the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Brush Car - including student artwork and illuminations. It will remain on display there until the end of the 2012 Illuminations at the start of November after which there are proposals for it to go for display in London!
Brush 621 is at Kirkham Prison where it is planned it will be restored by the inmates. The other trams at the Prison are there for storage purposes.
Twin Car 673+683 remain in private ownership and are on loan to the Friends of Fleetwood Trams. The two halves are currently stored in different locations.


British Trams Online is an enthusiast run website for enthusiasts. It should be able to be viewed at all screen resolutions but I do advise you that it is probably best at 1024x768. The site is owned, maintained (and in the main written) by Gareth Prior. Any comments or suggestions please email.
