Balloon Car 715's blog. Tuesday, 5 July 2011. Beauty and the beast! Doesn't this picture of 715, awaiting entry into service one morning, put into context the drastic rebuilding of the Balloon car class over the past few years? Good old british heritage. Thank goodness we have 715 to portray the real heritage of the Blackpool tramway. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Visitors to 715's Blog. Tram 715 - Shareholder Application Form.

Balloon Car 715's blog. Sunday, 11 July 2010. During June, 715 has been refitted with a full-set of matching seats achieved by swapping over seats from cars 622, 632, 703 and 715 so that the latter three have upholstery types that match. However, once the restoration to green and cream is complete, we will seek to reupholster seats in dark green moquette. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Visitors to 715's Blog.

Balloon Car 715's blog: April 2011
http://balloon715.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Balloon Car 715's blog. Friday, 22 April 2011. 715 returns to service for Easter. Preserved Balloon car 715 became the first 'un-refurbished' Balloon car to operate on the Blackpool tramway in 2011 on Good Friday, after winter hibernation since November 2010. It was one of only five Balloons to operate - cars 711, 715, 717, 719 and 723 on the first passenger carrying day resulting from the winter closure. However, trams are only operating between Pleasure Beach and North Pier. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Balloon Car 715's blog. Tuesday, 28 June 2011. Authentic blinds fitted for retro look. Fitted in time for 715's operation on the day of Totally Transport, Sunday 26th June, were white on black destination blinds. Both blinds were salvaged from Twin cars when they were fitted with fluorsecent blinds some years ago. It adds further to the retro-1970s look of 715. Picture from John Eyres collection on flickr.
