One of the 1930s style double decker trams operated along the Blackpool coastal route. The tram is just coming back onto the main line after turning at the loop near the Pleasure Beach.

I find this design of tram with its split screen and curved front bears a remarkable resemblance to the older split screen camper van, though the tram appeared approximately 20 years before the van.
