Alan Chinery occasionally drove the train on Queen's Pier after retiring to the Island in the 1970s
A charity named after a former Ramsey resident will fund the restoration of Bay 11 at the Queen's Pier.
Alan Chinery was originally from London, but retired to the Island in 1971.
He became a well-known member of the Ramsey community, including occasionally driving the train on Queen's Pier.
The Alan Chinery Charitable Trust, which was set up following his death, has donated £80,000 to the Queen's Pier Restoration Trust to continue its work on the Victorian structure.
QPRT says the donation as a fantastic amount and a magnificent gesture.
