Illuminated Trams
The Illuminated Tram fleet is up at two members for a complete Illumination Season for the first time in 4 years this year, with Trawler 633 and Frigate 736 doing the honours. They are used on a daily bsis running tours from North Pier and then following tours they often run on specials - including 736 which had been seen going to Little Bispham during the week. It is hoped that in a couple of years the Illuminated Western Train 733+734 will be restored to its former glory to take its place in the fleet.
