Heading towards Star Gate, the southern turning loop of the Blackpool system. These units, I believe, are based on the Leyland National Bus, and was an attempt to introduce economies into operation of the system.

One of 'newer' units heading towards StarGate. One of the interesting points about the Blackpool system is that it is operated on a shoestring, and this has led to many 'make and mend' solutions. In this respect this is what gives the system its charm amongst both users and photographers.
It is proposed that if current redevelopment plans take place than the line will be upgraded to operate Eurotram type of operation. Also of note only single deck units were working as the track to the north of Blackpool had deterioted.

KitKat unit heading towards StarGate. Perhaps I should go to Portugal and get a picture of the Lisbon version!

I like this shot as it breaks the rules about lighting.

'Blackpool' Brush Railcoach Although nearly 50 years separate these two Blackpool trams passing each other in this 'old & new' study taken at North Pier on Mon 7th May 2007 at 10:46, it is the older 'Brush' Railcoach on the right, no: 623, which was built at Brush of Loughborough in 1937, that looks more pleasing to the eye with it's stylish lines and livery when compared to the 'box-like' design of the East Lancs bodied Centenary Class Car, no: 647, which was built in the mid 1980's and carries an overall advert for Tiffany's Hotel.
