Thanks primarily to Trevor Machell there is a wealth of information for this one date alone so I have elected to index the tours on a separate page. Trevor spent most of a day observing the comings and goings at Blackpool when some 40 specials were due in and he has further added to the information from a copy of the WTT from this date.
