heritage tram 272 caught fire due to failure of the rubber insulation on one of its cables; all of its passengers and staff were unhurt, except for a conductor who injured his hand breaking a glass panel to access a fire extinguisher. On 24 November 2021 a pedestrian was in a collision with a tram in Fleetwood Road just south of the Anchorsholme Lane stop, later dying from his injuries. The Rail Accident Investigation Branch report a year later found that insufficient lighting meant the tram driver did not see the pedestrian, and that it was unclear why the pedestrian was not apparently aware of the tram's presence.
