Starting with a day trip (by air from Blackpool) in 1970, this book
covers the rest of the decade with visits in 1971, 1972, 1976 and
1979. The island was a fascinating place for a transport
enthusiast, with the traditional Douglas Corporation buses, horse
tramway, Manx Electric Railway and the steam railway - not
forgetting the Snaefell Railway and the lovely old Steam Packet Co.
ships. These traditional ships were the main loss in later years,
but changes had also occurred prior to David's final visit, with
the loss of the Douglas livery (all buses now being under a
'National' fleetname) and the rationalisation of Douglas railway
station. With a range of interesting views and fascinating subject
matter, Isle of Man Transport in the 1970s will appeal both to
those who have visited the island and general transport
enthusiasts.
