The only good thing about Blackpool

And now it is under threat.

Railnews.co.uk says:

After government rejection of new tram systems in Leeds, Liverpool and Southampton, it is now reported that Blackpool’s 100-year-old tram system is under threat.

Campaigners claim it will have to close if the Department of Transport fails to support an £88m funding application from local councils on Lancashire’s Fylde coast.

There is also a report in the Independent on Sunday. Read it while it is still free.
