Orchid Line to unveil disables-access carriage
Sunday marks a special day the Orchid Line at the Curraghs Wildlife Park, as it officially unveils it's first disabled-access carriage.
The purpose-built car allows wheelchairs to be securely carried on the miniature railway.
It took members of the Manx Steam and Model Engineering Club 18 months to design and build the new carriage.
Special Events Coordinator Eddy Ryan says the construction was carefully planned:
Death of MGP competitor deemed accidental by inquest
Louis O'Regan sustained fatal injuries in incident at Kate's Cottage
Flooding caused by 'sealed off' gulley, says Douglas Council
Brown water built up on Castle Street amid heavy rain
Sailings delayed after adverse weather affects Manxman crossing
Heysham departure pushed back amid disruption
Tour guides ask for tram reinstatement
A case for reinstating the tramway to the Sea Terminal is set to be brought to Tynwald in May
