Just as a matter of interest, there is a long-running thread on this website concerning the Blackpool Tramway and not everyone seems happy with the operational changes that have been made since the official opening of the line to Blackpool North Railway station. Under the old system, there were regular operational services from the Fleetwood Ferry stop to the Starr Gate stop as well as the short jouneys, but the new Blackpool North stop now seems to be the fulcrum upon which the services now operates part-journey services.
