Blackpool Transport Olympians

Just browsing the Bpool Trams thread beneath (& the 'progress' with the new tram fleet) i was wondering if the Bpool Transport ex Trent Olympians are still running? 2 years ago whilst playing a County Bowls match in Cumbria I stayed in Pool for a couple of nights & saw XCH 706Y coming along the prom on a Fleetwood service (cue a dash to the stop to by a return lol)

Such wonderful machines that took me to school & back in Derby many years ago, it was a surreal but warm feeling travelling on one again! (dare i say the closest thing to time travel?)
