Railcoaches
Working alongside the Brush Cars, the Ex-Towing Railcoaches only see service on specials. The class has remained at two serviceable members for 2006 with 679 remaining sidelined in the depot. 680 has received a new all over advert for this year, moving Piers from Central to North, now advertising Merrie England Bar. Both trams made several apperances on specials over the week.

With the setting sun reflecting off the side of Railcoach 678 the tram awaits its next duty on the Pleasure Beach loop. The date is 8 September 2006 and the tram retains its Radio Wave all over ad.
Railcoach 680 shows off its new all over advert for the Merrie England Bar at North Pier, with its rather blank ends. The location is North Pier in fading light and the date is 3 September 2006.
