Gallery 371: More from the Blackpool Balloonatic Weekend

The late May Bank Holiday weekend saw the third stint of heritage tram operation in Blackpool, with ten different heritage trams joining six members of the 'B' fleet in traffic across the three day holiday period. With glorious weather on the Saturday and Sunday, this weekend really showcased the Blackpool tramway at its best with ample opportunity to enjoy both modern and traditional trams doing what they do best - carrying full loads of happy residents and tourists! This gallery features most of the trams that were used across this long weekend, between Friday 24th and Monday 27th May.

Photographs in this collection were taken by Andrew Waddington
