In part one of this two-part series, I'm taking the Manx Electric Railway from Douglas to Laxey where I'll change trams onto the Snaefell Mountain Railway for a trip up to the famous summit. On the way, I'll tell you all about the trams and show you some of the scenery as we overcome a temporary breakdown, cloudy weather and railway closures I should have known about before planning ahead.
Things don't always go to plan do they but I hope you see enough of the trams that were running to make you want to go and explore the Isle of Man yourself. I'm glad I did.
As always guys, your support is very much appreciated. Likes, comments and subs are all very welcome and thank you very much for taking the time to watch my content.
Cheers for now.
Mark
