Well go on then bell scratch explain what you meant. I reread several times and you say you want trams along marine drive.

Instead of racing in there trying to be clever when you are ill equipped, you should have enquired about this bit. As it is you will now never know so you and your alter ego can carry on with the insults. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go on then what should they have done to Marine drive that would have made horse trams useable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also used look forward to visits to "The Cosy Nook" cafe at Port Erin but I wouldn't put it past the Commissioners to get it demolished and build another eyesore. Some call getting rid of the 'heritage stuff' on the island 'progress' I prefer to think of it as vandalism. Just saying Some people just love to moan.

They should have sorted out the Marine Drive and let the trams go from Douglas Head to Port Soderick. Nice leisurely ride with a good scenic view Much better as a nice leisurely walk without too much of the infernal combustion engine around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hedgehog Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Only a week to go before the horse trams run. Unless they get DIY SOS in to finish it off I have my douts about it happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 1 hour ago, MrPB said: Of course now that the operating costs and fares collected on the trams have been published it’s become abundantly clear that the taxpayer could have saved about £400,000 this year by simply not doing anything with the bloody things. I can’t see why they’re so keen to get back up and running so soon so that they can start to lose another £300,000 of our money this year like they usually do. Don't worry. The school kids are helping chip in now with their bus fare money. Cregeen will probably get more of their lunch money off them next too. Seriously though, with people in pain waiting long times for hospital treatment...this all stinks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see why fares should not go up on the trams to cover their inability to save money. The stealth tax would be voluntary then and not mandatory. I think if they put the tram fares up they'd have even fewer passengers. Last time I looked, Laxey to the top of Snaefell was about £20! But hey, you get a hell of a ride on the way down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
