@RRRob22 Most of Blackpool's tram fleet will be withdrawn beginning of November 2011 when the tramway closes.
Tramway will reopen Easter 2012 with 16 brand new trams supported by 9 Modified balloons during the summer season.
Blackpool transport are keeping around 25 heritage trams, but some say that they will see very little use when the new trams come into operation, only time will tell.
I've been a fan of trams since I was 2 and I was just wondering, what changes have been made? Are trams being scrapped? :O

@stuvids Thank you for your comments.
They are hoping to be up and running to Fisherman's Walk for Tram Sunday.

Hello srpott40,
I forgot it always seems to rain when you come to Blackpool, better luck this year.
I put the thunder in at the end as I thought it when well with the stormy skys over Centenary 648.
Yes they are hoping for Little Bispham at the end of the month, believe it when I see it.

another great video, posted to YouTube.
no it was nice to see the trams running to cabin, again and i here bispham is going to be by the end of the month.
one thing that ruined the video was the last 3 seconds, as it did not leave a great memory (only joking)
