On 7th August 2016 as part of the celebrations of the 140th anniversary of the Douglas Bay Horse Tramway there was a cavalcade of horse trams which ran all the way from Derby Castle to the Sea Terminal and back. It’s the and back that we see here just on the approach to the terminus with the oldest still operational tram originally built for the line – 12 – leading the way with Steve providing horse power.
