Minister thinks 'assumptions' have been made about future options
The Infrastructure Minister says organisations he's spoken with 'absolutely welcome' a review of the Island's heritage railways.
Chris Thomas took questions in Tynwald this week on a review and future operating models of heritage networks.
One of the options being considered on running the railways in future is through a charitable trust at arms-length from government.
Mr Thomas believes assumptions have been made that doing that is about replacing paid workers with volunteers:
