Oh a neat _Railway Series_ book fictionalizing this exact railway to the Island of Sodor world would definitely be astounding to make as a rendition part of the franchise, and would absolutely promote the Manx and Snaefell Railways quite a bit.
Super tramwaj z pneumatycznymi hamulcami! I te prostowniki rtęciowe w stacji zasilającej!!!◘○◘○◘◘○ Super tram with pneumatic brakes! And these mercury rectifiers in the power station !!!
I first went on this line back in 1958 on a school holiday so have forgotten all about how good the ride is, but as other comments have stated - it's a shame there is no information displayed which is a pity as it is extremely well filmed.
A superb railway. Yes they are trams but they also go across the landscape like a railway. They’re kept in wonderful condition and run by a dedicated staff. In other circumstances things of this age and historical importance would be parked in a museum and the public kept off but these are in service and working.
I remember that day of the lightning strike that blew the Ramsey power .. I was in the Mines Tavern having a drink before going home .. Myself & some guests we had been to Ramsey & the north that day and the MER was our transport to and from home.
Wonderful footage and a beautiful line. Those mercury-arc rectifiers! - is someone going to tell Tony Stark you were there a hundred years before him? 😛
I am a railfan from Greece. I am looking for persons railfans for letterwriting to exchange photos and other informations about trains. The letterwriting postly and no e: mail.
A wonderful reminder " that if it works keep it" !
Rode the Electric Railway several times on the 2 holidays I had to the Isle of Man years ago.
The trams are in fabulous condition. I'm glad to see that it is available for people to enjoy.
Nice video and reminder of been there, on the trains 🚞 😀
Wonderful

Wonderful ride, but I wish there was a commentary telling us what was going on
Good point. But very nice video quality, and a delightful railway.
Smashing look at that history and still going 🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲

Reminds me of the Mattapan line here is Mass. Although it is running PCC cars.
Love the 'toast rack'
Yeah, that's what we called them as kids at Llandudno as well

I had no idea what those were, they look like prop from a 1950s science fiction film. Thanks!
Is this a tourist only thing or is it worth using daily for commuting?
Locals use it as s local bus !
If they live near ?
It's literally a commuter tram. That's what's kept it alive. Tourists just love it too.

These aren’t trains, they’re more of a tram
Honestly, I would say they straddle the line.
It says Tramway on the side of the car so it's what it is!
