NZ2154 : Blackpool Tram at Beamish
taken 7 months ago, near to Beamish, County Durham, England
Blackpool Tram at Beamish
The Beamish Tramway route is 1½ miles long. It opened in 1973 to re-create the experience and atmosphere of a tramway operation of an earlier generation, whilst providing a means of transport for visitors to get around the site.
Blackpool 31 was built in 1901 at the Midland Railway Carriage and Wagon Company for Blackpool Tramway, originally as a four-wheel double-decker open topper. It was placed on long-term loan at the Beamish Museum in July 1984 and has been restored to its 1920s condition (open top, open platform double-decker).
