Members of Lancashire's emergency services conducted a training exercise with staff from Blackpool Transport Services and Blackpool Council at the resort's Starr Gate tram depot.

Police, fire and ambulance crews came together with staff from Blackpool Transport to deal with a major incident scenario at the depot.

The exercise was a great example of partners coming together to hold a real life training exercise that will help all organisations involved develop and strengthen emergency plans for the future and give staff who took part in the event experience of how to deal with possible major incidents in the future.

A huge thank you went to everyone who took part and to those who organised the event.
