I’m walking backwards for Christmas – 4

Tuesday…..

Sunny. Up to Laxey for a visit to Snaefell. We visited the sheds of the Snaefell Railway. Was a good tour and leaned a lot about what was going on. They only have 4 working trams. Nos. 1, 2, 4 & 5. They are building/rebuilding no 6. This is a complete build with lots of updates, as you can see from the photo. The first set of photos is what was in the yard. There was nothing left in the shed. 

And now back from the visit for the return trip up to Ramsey.

Laxey

Snaefell Railway sheds.

After the shed tour we were sitting down for a drink. MET 34 showed up towing two open trailers. On a special.  Don’t know what happened north of Laxey? The next train in was terminated at Laxey. So we headed for the bus.  On the way through to Ramsey over an hour later it was spotted still working its way to Ramsey. 

On the other hand this vehicle started life on the Snaefell. But was regaled for the MET.
