| ABOUT USFriends of Douglas Bay Horse Tramway is an independent news and information service established in September 2014 to campaign for the continued operation of the world's last remaining 19th century original horse-drawn passenger tramway, running along the seafront promenades of Douglas, capital of the Isle of Man, since 1876.
The Tramway forms an
intrinsic part of the Island's heritage offering to visitors; it is an
icon for both Douglas and the Isle of Man, part of the nation's identity.  Iron Pier, Douglas 1877 (MNH/iMuseum)
