Balloon 719 caused a stir over 5 years ago when it emerged with an ice cream parlour on the lower deck whilst advertising Walls Ice Cream. The tram has since had the parlour removed but is now on its second advert design for Walls as shown here at Bispham Station on 9 September 2002. Photo: Gareth Prior |
