30th August 2008 and 619 was still part of the tram fleet in Blackpool, being used for specials on nicer weather days which included this day which was the first Saturday of that year’s illuminations. The tram was in the brown and cream livery as a style which was to mimic the Blackpool & Fleetwood Tramroad house style. On this day it was seen at North Pier on the way south to Pleasure Beach.
