Re: Trams, Blackburn Road, 1928.
They're really good, Garinda.
Thought I would take advantage of you (  ), and step in with a plug for our next History Society lecture."From Steam Tram to Electric Tram" Accrington Library ... Lecture Room. Thursday, April 19th. 7.30 p.m. Alan Parkin. Alan always has some wonderful slides to show. Will remind people again, of course, nearer the time. |

Re: Trams, Blackburn Road, 1928.
Wonderful photos...Isn't it great when you can look at a photo maybe 90 yrs old or more and recognise the area and appreciate how it has changed and sometimes where it hasnt changed. I look at the pics and see the people and think "I wonder who you were and where did you live, and how old would you be now...100...110....isn't nostalgia a wonderful thing?

Re: Trams, Blackburn Road, 1928.
Looks like the site owner has thrown his dummy out of his pram and closed it down
Here is a link saying why Olive Green and Ivory - A history of Blackburn Trams and Buses When he says the few have spoilt it for the many I think he should have said the one, as in he has spoilt it

Re: Trams, Blackburn Road, 1928.
So some people that want to keep and share a few old photos took a few. He's talking like its a big huge copyright scale with ££££££££ in losses
Now there is a bus/tram spotter in action! sad sad person.
