PLAIN COLOURS FOR CENTENARY CARS
Blackpool & Fleetwood Tramway – Sunday 15th March 2009

Two Centenary Cars have received plain liveries recently with 645 being spotted in a plain red base coat whilst 648 has received a plain white livery, including Metro Coastlines logos. Click below for photos of the two trams.


645 in the Depot in all over red. It is not known whether the tram is awaiting vinyls for an all over advert but it has not yet received Metro Coastlines vinyls and red is not normally used as a plain livery.


648 just outside the Depot in a plain white livery. Unlike 645 this tram has received Metro Coastlines vinyls and so it is presumed this is a semi-permanent livery.
