Although still in Blackpool today, Balloon 720 hasn’t operated since 2011 despite receiving the B fleet modifications – one of nine trams to have been converted. It may not be the twentieth of the class (that honour falls to 719) but as it has the number 20 in its number we’ve decided to treat it to a photo considering it gets featured very little nowadays. This image shows its pre-B fleet days on 10th September 2005 when the tram advertised Eclipse at the Pleasure Beach. The location is North Pier. (Photograph by Gareth Prior)
