With fairly extensive use of contravision the advert promoted a number of different Walls products include Cornetto, Magnum and Solero. We see the tram standing on Bold Street, Fleetwood having just terminated, judging by is position there are other trams up ahead. The date was 4th September 2007.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_47753\" style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/?attachment_id=47753\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-47753\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47753\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-47753\" src=\"http:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2.631-gp-550x367.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"367\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2.631-gp-550x367.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2.631-gp-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2.631-gp-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2.631-gp.jpg 1260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-47753\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Since the adverts for Walls were removed 631 has been running in green and cream with this hybrid level being applied during 2021 \u2013 and at the same time it received the name REGINALD DIXON M.B.E.
