This open top tram dating from the 1930's is travelling along Fleetwood's main street. The side of the tram is painted with a slogan advocating electric traction. This particular tram route has survived 110 years so far. The way things are going we can probably expect to see more new systems in the UK, as is already happening in France and the USA.
