Passenger boats and freighters are seen at ports on the island and on the mainland. There is comprehensive coverage of the Peel, Ramsey and Port Erin lines operated by the Isle of Man Railway with some outstanding views taken during the 1950s, together with excellent portraits of most of the locomotives, as well carriages, vans, wagons, lorries, stations, staff and signal boxes.

About twelve pages are devoted to tramways, with civil and military aviation, featured on the next 20 pages (incidentally, my dad flew my mum to the IOM during the war - they met at RAF Heathhall in Dumfries - so that's one copy of the book spoken for already). This is followed by 30 pages of shipping photographs and information including lifeboats, wrecks, coastal steamers and pleasure boats. On the road we have fourteen pages of buses and 20 pages of cars & carriage from early motor charabancs to motor racing. Last but definitely not least is motorcycle racing - as befits an island so steeped in same. If you are interested in the Isle of Man in general or just some unique transport history you will definitely want this book.

Download or read book Trains of the Isle of Man written by Stan Basnett and published by . This book was released on 2008-10 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second book in the Transport Features series on the Isle of Man Railway tells the story of the period between 1967 and 1978 which was the most turbulent period of its history. Although longer than the actual period of Lord Ailsa's stewardship it covers the period after he surrendered his lease up to the point that the IOM Government belatedly stepped in and rescued the Port Erin line from extinction. The whole period owed much to the investment that Lord Ailsa put into the railway and laid the foundations for the eventual purchase by Government who had failed in their efforts to persuade the Isle of Man Railway Company to operate the line as a subsidised tourist attraction. The story is told in pictures form the authors personal point of view and includes some unusual photographs of the removal of the Peel, Ramsey and Foxdale lines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, drawing on wide experience of the Isle of Man, describes, interprets and explains the features that make the Island’s physical and human landscapes so distinctive and give it a unique sense of place. Although the editors have taken a strongly geographical approach to their theme, the book is unparalleled in writings on the Isle of Man in the broad range of contributions it has assembled: geology, quaternary science, geomorphology, archaeology, history, natural history, political science, demography, social policy and economics. The book definitively reviews current geographical knowledge relating to the Isle of Man, bringing together hitherto fragmented, scattered and inaccessible work. Particular emphasis is placed upon the way in which geographers are returning to their intellectual roots with a renewed focus on both the distinctiveness and sense of place. By helping readers to understand the processes that formed, and continue to change, the Isle of Man’s unique physical and human landscapes, this book aims both to inform and to enhance enjoyment of the Island.
