Wow! That wind was quite bad, and the amount of hotels along the seafront there, honestly lol. Those displays on the way up to Bispham are amazing. :)

brilliant vlog

Excellent video Ian, the wind can be brutal along Blackpool sea front Wishing you all the best for 2025

The Pleasure Beach turning circle is not just used by heritage trams. It is used for short workings or specials on the Blackpool & Fleetwood Tramway so, in peak season, you see a number of Bombardier Flexity 2s using the loop before setting off north to Bispham, Little Bispham or Thornton Gate.

It's honestly a real shame the heritage trams have ran into issues, I hope they're back out again soon. Imagine going to a tram stop just to visit a huge ball lol, I've heard of road trips down to see some rocks in the middle of Wiltshire and even done that myself lol.

You can still see the old tram tracks on the road where I live. Thank you for uploading this video 😊😊

brilliant vlog & it would be awesome if the plans go ahead to extend the trams down to Lytham then it would possibly be more quicker than on the bus from Blackpool & possibly bring more revenue to Lytham & St Annes

It's been a few years since I last rode the Blackpool Trams (130th anniversary event in 2015, when several of the heritage trams were running), so I hope the current issues with the heritage trams can be resolved soon One word of caution that some of the fish and chip shops are probably best avoided according to the Google reviews

Great vlog mate and happy Christmas

brilliant vlog

Just found some info on the ALX400, it was originally registered LG52 XZB, owned by VIP Bus Tours and yes, its also a Trident 🔥

At 22:05, the bloke in black with the orange bag was me, I drove that unit in and back out 👌

I do like the Blackpool trams, I've still never done the Blackpool illuminations though, I'd love to do them sometime.

All the best for 2025 Ian.😊😊

Great vlog Ian. Definitely interesting to see GWR diverting into Euston station.

i do plan to do watford junction soon in january as it seems like a great station. i honestly hate stations without stand clear announcements, had the same issue at water orton a few weeks back, but lovely to see the blue pullman at MKC! great showcase, ian!

shame about the disruption, but still an enjoyable vlog, ian! these stations seem nice to visit ngl!

14:20 thank you for calling a Pulsar 2 superior sir... Yes tico, we have a pride Pulsar 2 in Telford too

Brilliant festive chaos, Ian and Tico, a Merry Christmas to you both, and all the best for 2025 Bah Humbug to 172217 and 172345 and all those Streetdecks 😂😂😂

I think the weather in Blackpool is permanently stormy That Enviro should have pushed the Prius out the way lol 😂😂😂

merry christmas and cracking vlog ian! loved the rants and edits in this one

HAHA I loved this!! What is it with 172's giving people misery? 😂 172217 and 172345 are duly noted! It's a good thing 172's are my least favourite of the Turbostars! Happy Christmas!

nothing wrong with west bromwich albion Tico

Lol, thanks for ruining christmas for many people with 172 217 and 345 Ian. I think the goose's guided tour of Ashchurch for Tewksbury station was a brilliant one lol.

Great vlog Ian. The WMR 172s may ruined christmas for Tico I definitely feel bad for him even though you saw not one but two Tico's stalker units (217 & 345) that was unexpected. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful Christmas sir.

im loving all the stations & i i last did Temple Meads in 2023 & its a great station & id love to do all the other statioms one day maby in the future brilliant vlog

Not sorry for my best edits of 2024. also Damn you for spotting 819!

Dammit Daleks you had one job!!! JUST ONE JOB!!! some great displays in blackpool

That waterpark as a kid was heaven! Mothers company is a different story... This is why I was mostly tram and trainspotting in Blackpool

See I tried doing the entire network in June.... However the storm was pretty bad and northern were striking on weekends to make things worse... So only did the South and the Extension. Need to do the Fleetwood part P.S. I've stayed at that hotel. Craig-Y-Don. Fockin shit. We got Maccies as There was a limited menu for me and the band played till the early hours and you can here it from the top floor...

So the man does this during a storm.. Good lad! And good on that Streetlite!! A Magnificent Swan amongst a sea of SHIT ALD BUSES!! p.s. Northern.... Give us our WMR 323s Back!!!

the citaros were moved to the 3 route for a while, but ive seen them get used on the 5's, the 7 and the 14 of late, they said theres a new livery for the electric buses, i hope it looks decent, also the 18 doesnt go to Poulton, its a circular from town to airport to town via station rd and whitegate drive

You're not alone when it comes to bad weather in Blackpool, I seem to get bad weather most times I go there too lol. Also if the goose was to ride that bus route with those minbuses that are in actual fact, just vans, that would really make my day lol.

i did Blackpool for buses back in September & its great for bus spotting & i do like the E400city & MMcs as the paladium livery suits them & stagecoach seem to send anything to Blackpool from Lancaster same with stagecoach as at Preston ive seen Lakes livery buses in Preston & some MMCs aswell brilliant vlog

A fantastic video Ian, I hope blackpool gets new trams soon. Thank you 😊😊😊

The next GWR diversions between Christmas and New Year are using platforms 15 and 16 (according to RTT), so unfortunately there is no guarantee that we will get the chance to see the Night Riviera and Caledonian Sleeper on adjacent platforms

Why was there a Chiltern railways class 165 running on Sunday

i did Birmingham city centre for buses back in feb & 1 of the locations i picked was at Moor St & its def one of those spots that you could spend hours watching the buses & Birmingham is def almost MMC heaven & Diamond ruin the scene with their crappy streetdecks i means i rekon diamond love streetdecks & streetlites mind you they seem to love crappy buses like First anyway brilliant vlog

When I first heard this video was going to have flashing lights, I thought it would be you discovering some on the trip but in actual fact the goose put them there lol. The editing done by the goose had me in stiches as well, I just hope he remembers to get the much older buses baptised everytime you see them. Also at 9:04 and 10:41, what is it with people who think skateboarding and roller skating on the road is okay? It's dangerous and they could very well get hurt or worse! I say make skaters on the road pay roadtax if they want to skate on the road, rant over.

Thank you for everything you've done in 2024. All the best and merry Christmas and happy new year. 😊😊

Bluestar don’t run the x7 they only cover some runs

Great vlog Ian. I do like Cardiff stations. I mean I do like the new trains but I will miss the old sprinters.

I honestly had no idea Brunel wanted the Great Western to go into Euston, but hey they've finally gone there. The bit about Sheldon was hilarious lol.

Great vlog Ian, I think the WMR Class 730s are good for extra standing room and I think you’re right I don’t think tables are necessary but the sockets and USBs are.

Lovely wm buses
