A CelebrationTrains and Trams on the Isle of Man

David Lloyd-Jones David Lloyd-Jones

If ever there was an island crammed to the brim with railway interest, it has to be the Isle of Man. The author of this photographic survey has one huge advantage over most of his predecessors, in that he lives on the island and thus has found it relatively easy to be in the right place at the right time. Here are often once-in-a-lifetime shots taken from dawn to dusk in snow, rain and even blistering heat.

The result is a unique pictorial record of not just the Isle of Man Steam Railway but also the equally fascinating Manx Electric and Snaefell Mountain systems. The lesser narrow gauge lines at Groudle Glen and Great Laxey Mine also receive attention, as does the remarkable Douglas Horse Tramway. An informative text embraces the spectacular celebrations of various railway anniversaries, which attracted railway enthusiasts from around the world in the 1990s.
