Indeed Giles, the increased 10 minute frequency starts tomorrow. I think Blackpool Transport from their mistakes as initially there was only a 30 minute frequency on a Sunday which thankfully only lasted for about 3 weeks until it was equal to the Saturday service (minus the last late journey).

I do wonder with the success of the service of there will be pressure for more lines to be built in the area.

Yes, they have talked about extending a line to Blackpool North Railway Station already.

Blackpool’s Illuminated Rocket 732 today has gone for a cosmetic restoration before being placed on public display on Gynn Square roundabout for the duration of this years illuminations. I got a pic of 732 before it got loaded onto the low loader http://www.flickr.com/photos/jongraham890/7537395252/in/photostream/
