Taking 30 years of research, and three years to write, this is the first book to give a full detailed history of the early Blackpool tram fleet covering all trams built, from the conduit days (1885) to the year before the ?Streamliners' first arrived (1932). For the first time there are detailed notes on all liveries carried by the trams. The ?Standard' tram history is broken down to each individual tram. There is also a complete record of all works and illuminated cars constructed or converted from the 1885-1932 fleet. This book is an essential new work for the tramway and transport historian and tramway modeller alike. Illustrated with almost 200 photographs, maps and plans etc. A5 format, 224 pages, art paper throughout. Casebound, with a gold-blocked spine, printed endpapers and a full colour laminated colour.
