Celebration of tractors, trains and trams
The public can strap themselves in for a packed five days of tractors, trains and trams as the Manx Heritage Festival starts today (26 Jul).
Events include displays of rarely seen items from the Island's rich transport history, vintage bus tours, and an opportunity to drive one of the MER's tram cars.
The festival has been organised by dedicated volunteers and been supported by the Isle of Man government.
