IoM - all three No.1's at Laxey

Part of the MER's 125th celebration, September 2018. Posed at Laxey ...

Horse Tram No1 (1913, Milnes-Voss)
[This is the second car to carry "No1" , built as a replacement in 1913 with a 30 seat fully enclosed saloon body. The "original" No1 was built as a single decker by Starbuck Car & Wagon Co in 1876, later converted to a double-decker but ultimately scrapped in 1901]
The one horsepower motive unit is "Douglas" and judging by the pattern of his coat, he's a Clydesdale. He's been a "trammer" since 2002 [foaled in 1998 and he's 16 hands at the withers and definitely a Clydesdale - I checked the tramway website]

MER No.1 (built 1893 by Milnes of Birkenhead)

Snaefell Mountain Railway No.1
[gauge is larger at 3ft 6"] the original car was built in 1895 by Milnes, it was rebuilt in 2011 and reverted to the Tramway and prussian blue / cream livery it carried when new. Note; it has bow collectors and Fell brakes.
