Possibly the today, horse drawn tram at the giddy speed of 7km/h!

Plus the tram up Snaefell, and a very big waterwheel

Today was a trip down to Port Erin on the Manx Steam Railway. Very much , as I think top speed was about 25mph, but the windows opened fully. Again, I hope I have better photos from my actual camera, but here’s a couple of phone pics for now.

Tomorrow I think will be the tram up Snaefell

Oh, and a very nice ice cream too, scoop each of coconut & lime and Turkish delight (which was marginally my favourite)

After getting the next train, I spend an enjoyable afternoon walking around , culminating in a sunset over the Mersey with tomorrow’s onward travel just visible on the right.

More photos of the architecture once I’ve had a chance to review them, and stitch the panoramic shorts. Thanks for the recommendations of things to see.

A delayed train meant a just missed connection, but this was an unexpected chance to have a 45 minute wander around , where I found a lovely garden by the Ribble.
