Queen's Pier, Ramsey
Appearance
The Queen's Pier Tramway was a 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge line that once operated the entire length of the Queen's Pier in Ramsey on the Isle of Man.[1]
Rolling stock
Originally operated by two hand-propelled carts for propelling of luggage, it was later used by a Planet diesel locomotive and carriage, and later still by a railcar.
Closure
The line proved popular until 1971 when the steamers ceased to call at the pier. Upon closure of the pier in 1985 the rolling stock was removed to a small museum at the local tram station apart from the long disused luggage cart that remained on site. The "Planet" locomotive is preserved at Jurby Transport Museum.
