Gallery 885: Picture in Time Special - Isle of Man 1996


On the Manx Electric Railway one of the events of 1996 was the use of a Simplex locomotive to haul some MER vehicles - both motor and trailers - between Laxey and Minorca. The Simplex was the usual station pilot at the Isle of Man Steam Railway Port Erin station and was moved to the MER specifically for these special trips. In this image we see the Simplex with 1 and trailer 49 as the loco gets some liquid refreshment.
