Caine says extending line even further into the Sea Terminal would improve visitor experience
Re-instating the horse tram line to the end of Douglas promenade could bring the increase in passengers it needs to be a viable investment, according to one MHK.
An independent report found there is a strategic case for them to be reinstated, if the Sea Terminal was used as part of the railways' visitor facilities and formed part of a long term investment into the heritage railways.
However, it also said the financial case would need to see a very large increase in demand for the service to avoid a further rise in subvention.
