Tramtown: Preserving Blackpool’s History

Tramtown's Mission to Preserve Blackpool’s Tram History

Tramtown is managed entirely by volunteers dedicated to preserving Blackpool’s rich tramway heritage. Their main goal is to reopen the engineering works, enabling trams to run once again and maintain the historic essence of the town’s transportation legacy.

“We want Tramtown to preserve the history, to have the engineering works re-open so the trams can …”

The volunteers emphasize the importance of maintaining not only the trams but also the workshops where these iconic vehicles were once maintained and restored.

Volunteer-Driven Efforts

Operating without paid staff, Tramtown relies heavily on the passion and commitment of enthusiasts who value Blackpool’s tram culture. These volunteers strive to keep the engineering workshops functional as an integral part of Blackpool’s transport story.


Preserving Tramtown is vital for keeping Blackpool’s tram heritage alive through the work of dedicated volunteers focused on reopening historic workshops.
