Overview
Starting with a day trip (by air from Blackpool) in 1970, this book covers the rest of the decade with visits in 1971, 1972, 1976, and 1979. The island was a fascinating place for a transport enthusiast, with the traditional Douglas Corporation buses, Horse tramway, Manx electric railway, and steam railway—not forgetting the Snaefell Railway, and, indeed, the lovely old Steam Packet Co. ships. These traditional ships were the main loss in later years, but changes had also occurred prior to David’s final visit, with the loss of the Douglas livery (all buses now being under a National fleetname) and the rationalization of Douglas Railway station. With a range of interesting views and fascinating subject matter, Isle of Man Transport in the 1970s will appeal both to those who have visited the island and general transport enthusiasts.
