Blackpool Town Centre on Monday 11th March 2024, including PALLADIUM & Stagecoach buses and trams

Описание: On Monday 11th March 2024, we took a slightly different approach inasmuch as we filmed Blackpool Transport's PALLADIUM buses operating the new services in the town centre including views of them passing the new Blackpool North Railway Station tram plaza.
We filmed some more Stagecoach buses in the local service livery especially as more and more single deckers are coming through to Blackpool.
We also filmed the trams out on the Blackpool & Fleetwood Tramway whcih were: 002* 003* 009* 010* 011 012AD* 013* 014* 016AD* 017* 018 and an appearance by English Electric Balloon 717 that, despite having had a long rest up over the winter, was even more filthy than the awful condition in which it appeared during the 2023 season.
The Bombardier Flexity 2s are also becoming much dirtier by the day both inside and out, and definitely look distinctly unloved. Compare this to the PALLADIUM bus fleet that looks immaculate, and the trams look very sorry indeed. Of course, the purple livery that has been applied for well over twelve years doesn't help and it has faded very badly but there is absolutely no sign of the trams being washed as the cantrails are all absolutely covered in pantograph carbon and grease. Such a pity...... time for a new livery wrap!!
