MER birthday celebrations kick off

Parallel run out to Groudle

Celebrations of the 125th birthday of the Manx Electric Railway are well underway this weekend, with a 'parallel run'.

Isle of Man Transport ran two trams side-by-side out to Groudle this morning (Sat 1).

The service is having to operate with 'closed' trams on the railway today, though, due to current weather conditions.

It's hoped open cars can be used, as advertised, if the weather clears later on.
