The Year of the Railways 2023 Transport Festival on the Isle of Man took place between 23rd and 30th July 2023 – helping to celebrate not only the 150th anniversary of the Isle of Man Steam Railway but also 130 years of the Manx Electric Railway. One of the highlights in the first half of the festival was the use of works car 34 hauling passenger trailers and on 25th July 2023 this saw it hauling two! This view shows 34 coupled to 54 and 60 at Lag Birragh during a photostop on a special tour. (Photograph by David Mee)
