Consultation launched on heritage railways

Mon, 03 Jul 2023


The Isle of Man's heritage rail network is the subject of a public consultation which has been launched.

The exercise aims to gather views from the public. Contributions will help inform the ongoing independent review and economic impact assessment conducted by SYSTRA. Understanding who uses the heritage rail network and why, will support the review and final report, which SYSTRA will present by the end of September.

Infrastructure Minister, Chris Thomas MHK said: ‘The heritage rail network holds significant historical and cultural value to the Isle of Man. We are committed to ensuring its continued relevance and success. It is important for the consultants to have information from the public on how often they use the heritage railways, where they visit, and also why they feel it is important to them.

‘We encourage all individuals and organisations to participate in the consultation and share their thoughts, as it will play a crucial role in shaping the future of the heritage rail network.’

The public consultation will run for six weeks and conclude on 13 August 2023.
