This now brings the Flexity fleet back up to full strength at 16.

Isn't 006 out of service though?
RE: Blackpool Tramways - St Helens Rider - 03/11/2012 22:29
I wasn't aware of that.

I was in Blackpool this afternoon/tonight - Flexities weren't coping very well with long gaps in service and a lot of short runs to Cleveleys/Little Bispham, even seen a service running only as far a Tower (from Starr Gate) - perhaps the modified Balloons would have been a good idea for the weekend as well given all the crush loadings.

When looking closer it seems that 006 hasn't been used for a long period of time for an unknown reason.

I didn't notice it on Saturday. Bit of a shame now that 002 is back that they still haven't got all 16 operational.
