8 august 1985 - Blackpool, UK. Another tram loaned for the Blackpool Tramways centenary was this lovely Manchester Corporation `California` car of 1912. The style of bodywork, part closed and part open, was unusual in England and was particularly unsuitable in Manchester, a city famous for rain! The tram spent many years in store, but now lives at the Heaton Park museum tramway, back in its home city.
