In Pictures: Tram track on Central Drive, Blackpool

Another one to file under the “tram track found under the road” category of articles with a short section recently being uncovered on Central Drive in Blackpool during some road works.

With the road works on Central Drive at the junction with Chapel Street in the centre of Blackpool requiring a large hole to be dug in the road an unexpected recovery were sections of old tram rail. Here we see two bits of rail on the far side with another couple of sections having already been removed in the lower section of the picture. Trams last ran on Cenal Drive in 1936.
