Centenary Cars 2
Unsurprisingly, the only class not to be touched by the "mothballing" in the winter period. There are, however, currently only six serviceable members (of eight) currently with 645 coming to the end of its "mid-life refurbishment" and 648 recently withdrawn for a start to be made on its very own overhaul. Once these are completed the whole class will have been so treated. Of the remaining six all made appearances on specials throughout the week.

Centenary 644. Having completed a day on specials the tram returns to depot on 5 September 2005. It is in a split all over advert for Farmer Parrs Animal World/Fleetwood Market.
Centenary 646. Being used by the overhead gang to check that the wire at North Pier was working fine after some attention on 4 September 2005. Again the tram retains last years all over ad, this one for Paul Gaunt Furniture.
Centenary 647. In an all over advert for Tiffany's Hotel the tram is at Bispham working evening specials on 4 September 2005.
