Not Sure if it was a breakdown as such or a swap for some reason, But 4843 was parked up on Wellhead Lane with N.I.S on the display before changing and doing the 33 whilst another 48** (33 branded) was taken by an engineer with 33 on the display not sure what happened though (:

I very rarely recall seeing any of the original 2007 batch of Enviros being recovered, yet these latest batches appear to be having all sorts of problems. Does anybody know what they are? I bet Mansfield are rubbing their hands at this rate. This is the trouble with putting all your eggs in one basket type wise.

Love Blackpool especially the tram way, shame that they have modernised it all and all the old trams have virtually gone
