Claims move is part of plan to move stables
A supporter of the horse trams is suspicious of the decision to auction off vintage stock next week.

But Julian Nutter from the Manx Electric Railway Society claims it's part of a bigger plan to move the stables - whilst avoiding potential political embarrassment:
