Night view, towards Pleasure Beach 'Big One', illuminated frigate tram at South Shore Turning Circle, Blackpool Illuminations

---

Tram 736 'HMS Blackpool' was originally built in 1965, based on a Whitby-Class or Type-2 anti-submarine frigate of the Royal Navy. The tram was withdrawn from service in 2001, but, with its body re-designed (loosely based on HMS Beaver) and carrying 64 passengers, the tram was returned to service for the 2004 Lights. The tram is standing at the South Shore Turning Circle, picking up illuminations tour passengers. A night view to the Pleasure Beach 'Big One' Rollercoaster, at the northern end of the Ocean Boulevard shops and restaurants.
