📸+++HEY STREETROGUE'RS+++ 📸Just letting you all know, I'm now running STEP BY STEP lightroom colour grading tutorials here on my channel. Here is the first one: ruclips.net/video/S67bpzMQbjg/видео.html ENJOY Reply
I'm Johnny Heyes and used to love coming to Blackpool especially on a rainy day, where I would swim in the Derby baths in the morning, then ride an old tram single and double deck to the Pleasure Beach for stockingfeet at the Fun House, then back into town by old tram.
Lived at Vermont Grove in Cleveleys during my time in the UK in 84-85 from Australia. Loved the trams, loved the Golden Eagle pub, the Chippy (The Blue Anchor I think) on Anchorsholme Lane, loved going into town and visiting Tower Models, getting a feed at the Coronation Cafe and heading down to Bloomfield Road to watch the Seasiders play (Coldest I've ever been anywhere in my life). Lived there through the winter before three months traveling Europe. Came back to find the population and quadrupled and the trams had grown an extra storey. Loved the place. I wonder how much of that stuff is still there.
Stored on a private site owned by Associated British ports. exported to San Francisco - very few, Many heritage trams still ply up and down the prom. These are owned by the now defunct Fleetwood Heritage Leisure Trust
Yes Balloon car 710 was the tram which "killed" Alan Bradley. It was also sent over to Crich in 1985 to replace trams which the museum hadlent to Blackpool for the tramway Centenary in 1985. It is an absolute disgrace that these trams have just been left to rot, without any sort of cover.
I couldn't care less if the tram was 700 701 702 703 704 707 708 709 711 712 713 714 715 716 717 718 719 720 721 722 723 724 725 or 726. 705 was withdrawn after an accident with 706 that became an open top.
@@streetroguephotography well, Blackpool, Bristol and Brighton is on our short list if you’re ever allowed to travel again. And Berlin, so apparently we have a thing for b-cities. But it would be fun to see if The Northern Soul is alive and well. At the moment we have a good old snow storm here in Stockholm so that’s that..
@@matsfrodin3546 Hey man, hit me up if you are ever my way, ill show you around! there is plenty of odd culture here for you to get lost in! you guys got snow now?!?!?!?
@@streetroguephotography Definately! No one gets lost like me. Yep! We call it aprilväder (April wheather) which means we have a few days of snow, then sunshine, then fog, then snow again and repeat until may. And you guys can go to the pub again I hear, cheers!
@@streetroguephotography hi there not there eney more but on the same site the one of the cercas paformer bloo himself up and nearly died he was very lucky that day
Hi Alan here got some great news about that tram Blackpool heritage want it back so it looks like that tram is going to be put back in service once it's had the restoration work done as there had a fund me to have it restored and have it running once again
Hi alan, thanks for this info, finally some good news about these trams! thats great news! Also, i have just uploaded a new explore, Here is a fantastic urban explore of the Lost World War 2 pillbox of cayton bay, uk, soon to drop off a cliff due to coastal erosion, ww2 wartime architecture! An amazing rare hilltop fortress! Well worth checking out. - ruclips.net/video/S8NMdEjb8v0/видео.html
wow this brings back soo many memories of visiting Blackpool as a kid/teen. Recognise the design immediately, even recognise quite a few of the adverts. I remember when the tram depot used to be on Rigby Rd. I believe that's been moved to the South Shor?. The new trams are all very modern and it no doubt makes economic sense, but they just don't have the character of the older trams.
100% spot on. The trams they have now are faster, but soless, i used to love the sound of the rusty tracks and the creaks and cracks. something super special about the old ones, i'm glad i got to do this explore before they disappear forever.
Having been an engineer and working on those trams all I remember was digging through the guts of 637 looking for parts to salvage to try and keep the other trams working, as the company was notoriously stingy about spending money for new parts :/
Cheers troy, really appreciated. Thanks for the channel support! Yep, blackpool's like that! please consider subscribing as there will be ongoing blackpool adventures moving forward! Anything else you would like to see?
Best video yet Danny, great music too, really fits. The 16mm stuff way outshines the 85 though. I remember going to Blackpool on holiday with my grandparents when I was very young... Learning all the tram stop names, like my grandparents did in the 20's...
Exactly, a trip down memory lane! really such a beautiful explore, a visit back in time. I love these sort of time capsules. something special about the past..........a time of optimism, where the future looked bright and everyone had hope. do we still feel the same in 2021? cheers for the support!
Hi Adam! thanks mate! awesome to have you on board! Tis channel is all things photographic, and will have plenty of tricks and tips, and things i have learnt along the way. Thanks again bud! hope you enjoy the other photo explores. Are you a photographer? SR
Nice work mate always love to hear your commentery sounds like the trams brought back many happy memories! Keep up the videos looking forward to your next one
Glad to hear it! Haaaaaa, yeah, new flu for sure! not so cryptic huh! thanks for the support and i hope you love the new explores that are coming very very soon! iv'e been busy exploring! Thanks for your kind words too!
@@streetroguephotography Definitely mate, I remember boarding that tram at Central Pier to get home and it being a new tram at the time. Then I took sight of the ice cream parlour and bought an ice cream, which was amazing. It became my favourite vehicle of choice after that, shame to see it in such disrepair. RIP Mr Whippy Tram, you're sorely missed lol. Good old days mate ❤️
Hi guys. Great vlog. No, its not the Balloon (double deck) tram that used to have an Ice cream parlour on board. That was tram no.719. I know this as I was involved in parts of its conversion. It had modern 'bus' type windows on the sides - this one has the old 1930s sash type ones still. Great photos. :-)
Only just found your videos and you are on my door step. Love your style and the way the music fits perfectly. If you ever fancy someone to tag along on a shoot give me a headsup as just learning the mystic arts myself.
Thank you my man! appreciated your words! Let me know if there is anything you would like to see in the future. Ask and street rogue will try and get it done!
@@streetroguephotography Haha! No worries man. I love the feel of your stuff and you're a Fuji user so a win in my books 🤣! Urbex style work for me man. You have a very gritty feel so I think it would lend itself to some old hospital pictures or something in that vein.
Glad you enjoyed it, your support means the world. The musical master Mr Nate Connely : ruclips.net/user/nateconnelly creates all of my music specifically for each episode. please consider checking out his channel and let him know he's appreciated! he's an absolute master at making tunes. #nateconnelly
Hey Homo Erectus Streetrogue, check out 1960/70's headmaster of Stanley Primary school, Marton area. I read a booklet may be as long as three decades ago now, written in the seventies? His history of the Blackpool tram, at the time a pioneer of tram memorabilia and anecdotal memories, was commended by tram followers and Blackpool history buffs. From memory that's all the info, I can remember. It didn't go far. He was ahead of his time in collecting Blackpool history. Most people at the time wanted to make the new history!
Is this a chap called Steve Palmer; who I think was a headmaster of a school and wrote loads of books about Blackpool trams?! I have a couple in my bookcase!
Hey wears urbex, thanks so much mate, thats a really cool thing to hear today, cheers, highly highly appreciated. Im just trying to create a style with my photo explores, a style that i would like to watch myself, so i'm super glad that some peeps find it cool. I have some other explores in the same style / format, so please feel free to check them out (on my channel) and let me know what you think about them. Also, please consider subscribing, as there will be plenty of explores and tips and tricks coming in the future. Ill check out your channel when i get the chance! you a photographer?
wohaaaaaaaaa! thank you! if you are into urbex, check my other vidoes. loving that you are into the style! enjoy the ride chooo chooooo! What sort of videos are you into?
alreet derren!greetings from the bpool! lancashire lads strong! thanks a lot mate, really appreciate that! glad your on board with it. good man on the X series, nothing better in my opinion. simple, strong and feels like part of you when out and about! ill check out your channel this eve. cheers again mate. you a photographer?
Thanks pal! appreciate the words, i'll check out your channel this evening. i have some other cool explores on my channel with a similar vibe! happy exploring!
The Old trams better made than new ones today.I remember years ago in Malta they did away with Leyland Buses are replaced them with ARRIVA buses they started to give trouble after a short time Drivers didn't like the arriva buses
I guess with these purple trams Blackpool dont feel the need so much to preserve every vintage tram or have parking space for them. But like the steam trains, & cities bringing them back,maybe every line will have its own preservation & restored trams society.
Even if they couldn't keep them you would think they would use them for parts to keep the others operational. Sad to see them in that state but i suppose if they are surplus to requirements what else can you do with them?
@@streetroguephotography I like places that have some atmosphere to them and some history, like asylums, churches abandoned or not abandoned, either ways, there's a great adventure just waiting for us all! 😀
These look great Danny, I’ve got to find these mate. Loving your style on this, making me want to order a 16mm but I’m skint (as always) and really need a long lens first and keep thinking of going for a drone next year too. The artwork and lettering really shows the age of these, no computer generated stuff here.
Hey Brian, the 16mm lens is really my favourite out of all the fuji lenses. the 85mm is also a great shortish telephoto lens i would recommend. i use the viltrox 85. Drone wise, what model were you thinking about getting?
@@streetroguephotography Drone would have to be one of the Mavic Minis, I know the first will be cheaper but it doesn’t have the Collision Avoidance and as it will be my first I think I’d be better with that. As for lenses I really don’t need a longer one like the 55-230 before anything, I’ve really missed not having a longer lens and I’m off to the Lakes in October too. Yes I know the 50-200 is better and in a perfect world I’d probably go for the the 70-300 but being unable to work it’s jut not possible. I probably know the answer already but are you going to shoot some of the Punks at Rebellion this year? Went with my friend in 2019 and not only did we get some great Street Portraits it was such a good laugh talking to them too, not one said no to us when we asked for a photo besides a couple asking us to buy them a beer, didn’t happen and still got the shot. Got a few things in the diary, Brazilica in Liverpool (19th July), Manchester Pride (28th August), could be a good year if all goes to plan and we don’t get anymore Lockdowns. Just need my Driving License back though but trying to get through on the phone is a joke.
Amazing! Just to think we've probably been on those exact trams! The comment about the stairs made me laugh they were so steep and narrow, moving down them while the tram was moving 🤣 Literally feels like you can point you're camera at anything and make it look amazing. Nice work man 😍
Crich already have ~14 Blackpool and Blackpool & Fleetwood trams from the earliest to the last ones built! Doubt they would be looking to restore any more?!
No secret that's Fleetwood docks we were last here with Johnny vegas for carry on glamping. The black tram is the last tram that was in service with hand painted advertising. It should be in a museum
I wouldn't mind doing a photoshoot with a bunch of my photography club photographers and a fashion model at this tram graveyard who do I contact to set this up?
Another comment. These trams were not being used and were kept in Rigby road depot until there was no more space as the Blackpool council were buying too many old trams and restored them, these had to be shunted out of the depot and were put there.
Suprise that these Blackpool Survivors are still around most of the that where in this site where transferred to Blackpool Rigby Road just 3 years ago a sad site inded that these are neglected to Funcus and to Rust.
Oh wow! I always remember the conductors shouting the names of the stops! “Uncle toms cabin” “gynn square” “bonny street” “star gate” etc! Yeah, sad to see them like this. Total waste. Silly council sold them off, now they just rot. Sad really
@@dinnyallidon it was a brilliant job trying to serve customers and getting the doors for people to get on or off hard work but was worth . Illuminations where the busiest time to work on them but brilliant experience it was 👍
@@dinnyallidon so did I best moment was Tuesdays when fleetwood market was on my god every single tram going was hammered you couldn’t get a seat during that time haha
Hey Dadge, views? i honestly don't care about views, i care about reporting the forgotten. They have been here for years, some trams have ownership issues / disputes etc etc. These trams are rotting badly.......they have been neglected and therefore until something is done to restore....they will remain forgotten. out of sight out of mind.

Hey Brian, the 16mm lens is really my favourite out of all the fuji lenses. the 85mm is also a great shortish telephoto lens i would recommend. i use the viltrox 85. Drone wise, what model were you thinking about getting?
@@streetroguephotography Drone would have to be one of the Mavic Minis, I know the first will be cheaper but it doesn’t have the Collision Avoidance and as it will be my first I think I’d be better with that. As for lenses I really don’t need a longer one like the 55-230 before anything, I’ve really missed not having a longer lens and I’m off to the Lakes in October too. Yes I know the 50-200 is better and in a perfect world I’d probably go for the the 70-300 but being unable to work it’s jut not possible. I probably know the answer already but are you going to shoot some of the Punks at Rebellion this year? Went with my friend in 2019 and not only did we get some great Street Portraits it was such a good laugh talking to them too, not one said no to us when we asked for a photo besides a couple asking us to buy them a beer, didn’t happen and still got the shot. Got a few things in the diary, Brazilica in Liverpool (19th July), Manchester Pride (28th August), could be a good year if all goes to plan and we don’t get anymore Lockdowns. Just need my Driving License back though but trying to get through on the phone is a joke.
Amazing! Just to think we've probably been on those exact trams! The comment about the stairs made me laugh they were so steep and narrow, moving down them while the tram was moving 🤣 Literally feels like you can point you're camera at anything and make it look amazing. Nice work man 😍
So cool! thanks for the kind kind words......you cant beat a bit of nostalgia!
The metro one in pink is the Tram 710 that killed Alan Bradley in Coronation Street .
sure is!
Great content mate, sweet location, keep up the good work. Cheers 👍🏻
Black collar project 👻
Thanks for the love! really appreciate it. Your channel is super interesting by the way!!! spooky!
Let Crich tramway museum know about them, could be life yet.
Hi! how can i get in touch with this place you mention?
@@streetroguephotography Simples, just go here - www.tramway.co.uk and leave them a message.
Crich already have ~14 Blackpool and Blackpool & Fleetwood trams from the earliest to the last ones built! Doubt they would be looking to restore any more?!
No secret that's Fleetwood docks we were last here with Johnny vegas for carry on glamping.
The black tram is the last tram that was in service with hand painted advertising.
It should be in a museum
defo should be in a museum!
That double deck tram IS the one that ran Alan Bradley over.
Ah..........i thought so! they are getting punished for that bad behaviour! to be fair though, bradley was a bit of a prickster!
Absolutely heartbreaking, these vehicles should be somewhere safe and secure. Most are almost 100 years old
Hey Stuart, i think they may have bee moved.....ill look into it and get back to you! SR
There’s only 3 left now by the way
really? thanks for letting me know. wow....glad i got to photograph them!SR
I wouldn't mind doing a photoshoot with a bunch of my photography club photographers and a fashion model at this tram graveyard who do I contact to set this up?
you don't.....it's gone. they crushed them and sold for crap. sad times. was a cool place
Another comment. These trams were not being used and were kept in Rigby road depot until there was no more space as the Blackpool council were buying too many old trams and restored them, these had to be shunted out of the depot and were put there.
massive shame, i believe they were bought privately with borrowed money, then the buyer disappeared.......
What a shame that would make a brilliant tram museum, Blackpool history really sad, if they could talk.
sure would. a shame for sure.
I guess there is only a limited number of vintage tramcars that can be preserved and looked after, the rest.....rust in peace.
Rust in peace! for sure! cheers!
Suprise that these Blackpool Survivors are still around most of the that where in this site where transferred to Blackpool Rigby Road just 3 years ago a sad site inded that these are neglected to Funcus and to Rust.
huge shame huh!
I use to be a conductor on most of these such a sad way for them to be treated
Oh wow! I always remember the conductors shouting the names of the stops! “Uncle toms cabin” “gynn square” “bonny street” “star gate” etc! Yeah, sad to see them like this. Total waste. Silly council sold them off, now they just rot. Sad really
@@dinnyallidon it was a brilliant job trying to serve customers and getting the doors for people to get on or off hard work but was worth . Illuminations where the busiest time to work on them but brilliant experience it was 👍
@@triggerlegend3115 yeah, simpler times huh! I loved the slide doors, all manually controlled! Those were my fave
@@dinnyallidon so did I best moment was Tuesdays when fleetwood market was on my god every single tram going was hammered you couldn’t get a seat during that time haha
AMAZING! Welcome on board fine sir. Return ticket to the tower please! Hold tight...ding ding. Next stop little bispham.
This is absolute tragedy!!!
yeah, sucks!
I know it helps to get views, but these trams aren't forgotten and this isn't a graveyard.
Hey Dadge, views? i honestly don't care about views, i care about reporting the forgotten. They have been here for years, some trams have ownership issues / disputes etc etc. These trams are rotting badly.......they have been neglected and therefore until something is done to restore....they will remain forgotten. out of sight out of mind.
Why on earth don't they recycle these???
I have no idea! such a waste!
That smell...
yup!
i meant council not you
ah! okies!
These need restoration joke this
sure do! such a shame.
A strange production, with a curious and very indistinct narration. Hopefully it will not attract vandals to the site.
strange is good! they have been there for nearly 14 years, and there is security. the place is safe.
prob robbing for parts
i only take memories son...................never things
Awesome video mate 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
