New transport museum?

There’s hope the Isle of Man could have its first full-scale Manx Transport Museum.

Last autumn, a dedicated group of enthusiasts produced outline plans for such a facility in Jurby and talks are ongoing.

One of the men behind the project, Barry Edwards, says it’s time the public were able to see some of the many historic vehicles and transport related artefacts hidden away.

He’s pleased with the support of the Tourism Minister and Isle of Man Transport:
