Tram Sunday 15th July 2007

Hello everyone.

The organising committee invite you all and your vehicles to be a part
of  Fleetwood Transport Festival which is widely acknowledged to be the
most unique, transport-themed, free family day out in the North West of
England. The Fleetwood Transport Festival has been firmly established in
the rally calendar for 23 years, however it is more commonly known as
"Tram Sunday" (especially to the locals).

The event this year falls on Sunday 15th July 2007.

The event is uniquely held in Fleetwood's Historic Town Centre, which is
the part of the world's first electric street tramway. This means that
the roads are closed and your vehicles will be parked on the firm road
surface rather than a muddy field, especially useful for heavier
vehicles which sometimes have a tendency to get stuck on fields.

The event is only a short way from Blackpool off the M55 motorway.

Usually attracting around 80,000 visitors it is a tremendously fun day
with attractions for people of all interests and ages including Vintage
Trams, Classic Cars, Buses, Commercial Vehicles, Motorcycles and other
Special Interest Vehicles of all types, sizes and descriptions.

There is also much to entertain families with a national gathering of
Town Criers, bands, dancers, miniature and model railways, military,
gymnastic displays, fairground rides and of course the scenic sea-front
and beach. There are many one day only transport-related trade stands
along with many of the local shops, cafés and restaurants open, ensuring
all the family get maximum enjoyment throughout the day.

For peace of mind, a large dedicated team of marshals will ensure
correct vehicle placement and that everyone has a thoroughly enjoyable
and safe day out. An early arrival would be advised at the event.

To take part in this wonderful and totally free event please email me
