I was reading recently that in Canada if you give Via Rail (successor to Canadian Pacific and Canadian National) 24 hours notice they'll stop at any milepost. They have 7800 miles of track so if you have a couple of years to spare you could do All the Mileposts in Canada.

Bits about Dhoon Glen that I did not have a chance to tell you about .. The gates on the shelter are the goat gates as feral goats roam the area from just before Bulgham Rocks towards Ballaglass. The gates are to stop the goats damaging the bench seat & leaving their visiting card. The chalk words advising that the stop is a request stop was written by my dad as if you do not request the tram to stop it will go past. The white building with the green door was our family’s cafe what we leased from the forestry department of the government. Our lease expired 31/12/2018 .

Please say you’re doing the Isle of Sodor next.

Its great to have a heritage steam railway and tramway integrated into the island's public transport network.

When I went to the Isle of Man I just wanted to sit at Laxey Station all day. It was autumn, the trees were golden and it was just an idyllic moment of time.

"¡ There's never a wrong weekend to come to Man !" Words of wisdom.

Is quite amazing how old those trams are now. Long live the M.E.R and Snaefell Mountain Railway.

8:59 And I keep expecting BigClive to pop out from behind an electrical service panel, or maybe installing fairy lights on a hedgerow somewhere? Never can tell with him. LoL

What a great place. I'd love to live there. The pace of life seems to be just as it should be. Relaxed.

The Isle of Man is a fascinating place. And seems to have a micro-climate: any time I’ve been there the weather’s been lovely.

I love the IOM went there as a teen with my dad and took my own kids there in the 80s and nothing had changed. Loving this series. 😋👍💕

Brilliant video as ever! "It's really windy!"

Vicki did a great job switching the trolley pole for the first time. The springs on them are very strong. Throwing the points also takes a lot of strength. In the U.S., a switch-stand is geared and a lot easier to actuate.

Beautiful as always! I am ever-so-slightly jealous of you guys getting to operate a tram change like that!

Brilliant. Revived memories of going up Snaefell and, like you, encountering low cloud. Fortunately, the sun burnt through that day.

Next, you two ought to go and explore the railways of Switzerland. THAT would be a hoot to watch. Plenty of opportunities for Vicky Explores installments too...

It’s not a pantograph, it’s a trolley pole. If if were a pantograph Vicki would have saved all that effort.

Really enjoying the sights and sounds of the Isle of Man Railways, I did them when I went on a Shearings Coach trip. Loved Vicki's Kate Bush impression ....

the opening drone shot of Ramsey!! i live somewhere in that shot, but not telling you where... for obvious reasons (yes i was the one who sent the package to Geoff last year, i've moved address since...)

Hoping to do a driving exp on this soon. Love this railway. Especially the tunnel motor & the illuminated one.

I hope you meet big Clive

Was there in 73 when summer land went up and 50 lost their lives. Was 17 at the time,went on the tram a few days later, the tram was very quiet when we went past both going up and coming back down.

I like the goats....we'll just stroll across the track, then plunge off the side of the mountain - because we can on the Isle of Man. :D Sweet - from a wild mountaintop to a peaceful, gentle glen.

GOATS ON THE TRACK! GOATS ON THE TRACK!

I would never have known it was windy up at the summit without Vikki xD!

Great Scenery so green

Very enjoyable and beautifully filmed and presented, as always. Love the beautiful Summer weather at the top of Snae Fell! I can testify to the amazing views there over to North Wales, the Lake District, SW Scotland, the Mountains of Mourne in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland coast. IMO, Better than from Snowdon ( which also has a mountain railway, of course). Shame you were fogged in though..

I really like this series of film's on the Isle of Man.

Also nice to have the poles in the centre of the two tracks wherever possible, so you dont have them obscuring the view too much!!

lovely work

1893... Makes the Pacer look youthful.

This is just gorgeous! Even though it was so misty at the top, the whole trip to the top is totally worth it. I think I'd like to visit the Isle of Man :) It's remarkable that on this island every transport is so old, still using steam trains, 120 year old electric trams, looking forward what tomorrow brings. It's all so quaint, Vicki hasn't said quaint yet!!

I like the additional lyrics in the end theme music. "....All of them".

The staff are amazing on the Islandso friendly and they love the transport so much care into everything they do. always worth doing the tram driver taster sessions I did it on my 25th this year and loved being a driver for a good 25-30 mins you don't realise how fast they can go. Love the island. I've been up the mountain ⛰ 12 times ish and I think it's been clear only 5 😂.

This mirrored exactly my time on the Isle of Man. Snaefell was foggy and windy, and I got off at Dhoon Glen to explore (though I went all the way to the bottom.). Can't wait to see the Laxey Wheel vid

The additional southern bungalow station would it be funny if they called it Dorma.

The Isle of Man looks amazing, and it definitely looks like a place I'd like to visit. The old trams and steam trains really add to the island's unique charm. Three great facts about the Snaefell Mountain Railway are that it is the only electric mountain tram in the British Isles (the one in Llandudno is a cable car), it is the only tramway (that I know of) in the British Isles that runs entirely on the right, and it uniquely uses bow collectors to obtain power. Also, the Manx Electric Railway uses a trolleypole, not a pantograph. Otherwise, this is a really great video. Keep up the good work!

15:55 Having forgotten her kite at home, Vicky finds another way to pass the time

12:18 Geoff! Wasn't that the appropriate time for a request stop video?

Brilliant! Thanks Geoff and Vicki.

A little bit of a fact for you if you didn’t know no.15 / mnr no.4 Caledonia from the steam railway had a siding at Bungalow for when she went back and worked on the line in 1995

What a beautiful place the Isle of Man👍🏻

Enchanting. Reminds me of a funicular i did in Stans in Switzerland that couples with a cable car to climb the Stanserhorn.

Lovely video guys - Snaefell was windy when we were there, but at least we had a view! Great to see IOM again and hear about the trams from Andrew. Tram to camera shot was sweet.

Okay you've done it. I am going to the Isle of Man.

Wow, truly is a Beautiful Place and I always thought the Isle of Man was a crazy Bike race but now I know it's way much more,. great Place to Hang glide, lol. Thanks Again..

Enjoyed this video a lot. Quite relaxing to watch with the beautiful scenery. It's a nostalgia trip back in time. Vickie & Geoff need to come to U.S.A.

Beautifull video guys!!!So many fond memories☺☺☺

The Isle of Man was never on my bucket list until these last two Manx episodes, and now it's way up there. I'll definitely go someday, hopefully soon. BTW, I don't normally comment on shallow things like appearances, but Vicki's motorcycle jacket rocks. (And I know how expensive leather apparel is in the UK and Europe.)

Looks so fun

I find it kind of ironic that the mountain railway is double track pretty much all the way - except the terminus, where it drops down to single for the last 100 feet.

The depot in Douglas is very close to where Summerland used to be. This was where 50-53 people died in a fire in August 1973. It's a disaster that has been forgotten about by a lot of people. The fire was started by three youths in a plastic kiosk next to the building. This spread to the main building. Lovely to see the island again, thank you for sharing.. Still no sign of BigClive the famous Manx You Tuber...

That timing :D Just finished watching Part 1!

Great video guys, loved every second off it. It was a shame about the weather at the top of Snaefell. But that's quite the norm for us.

Brilliant! Simply brilliant!!!!

Big Clive would have been perfect for this video

My Dad used to work on the Isle of Man as a manager for all things transport. Just a fact to mention that when me and my mum were visiting him in 2013 (as we lived in UK and my Dad over in IOM) we went on the Snaefell mountain railway and coming down past laxey wheel the brakes failed on the central rail. My dad ended up rushing into the cab and assisted the driver to apply the emergency brake. We stopped just in time before crashing at Laxey.

Vicky has been working on the (Manx Electric Railway) Railroad all the live long day...

Great video. A pity you couldn’t make it to the beach at the Dhoon though, that is a truly beautiful spot

Lovely drone shot at beginning! 👍 Love the music! Great job at Ramsey Vicki, well done! 😊

It's really windy

Great fun video again. Interesting that the Snaefell Mountain Railway seems to keep right...

I think I had it even foggier than you when I went up the Mountain Railway a couple of years ago. Lovely bright day in Laxey, couldn't see more than about 5m in front of you at the top.

welldone guys keep up the good work guys your videos vlog are great

Can we just for a second appreciate Vicky's Kate Bush impression?

2036 feet is equivalent to a 15 storey building

Wonderful. Loving this.

Pity the mercury arc rectifiers have gone.

My favorite part might be Vicki's brief Kate Bush impression ;)

What an amazing tram system! I think I want to move to the IOM...

Bring on ALL THE CASTLES!!!!!

Got to love a bit of a Kate bush reference Vicky

Awesome video All The Stations :)

Love these videos! Glad to see more.

Nice video guys, thanks for the upload

Sometimes a mere thumbs up seems so inadequate. Yet another fantastic vid from the ATS team, this time the sequence from 10:59 on the descent from Snaefell stole the show (although Vicki’s “its really windy” and Geoff’s terrible jokes ran it close) 😀. Can’t wait for the final instalment.

@ 16:27 "Mind to take your glove off to get the finger in" Oh behave ;-)

Not sure if you knew this but the Queen's stand-in Ella Slack (the one they use to rehearse events the Queen attends) lives in Ramsey. I saw her on a vid recently and I was like "hey, All The Stations will be at the Isle of Man, I wonder if they met her". Ramsey reminds me of the way people misspell Gordon Ramsay XD. I love trolleys like that electric tramway. Ever since I watched Mister Rogers' Neighborhood with its red trolley, I've loved trolleys and all sorts of trains

As usual guys, brilliant stuff

Excellent video. Pity ahout the weather on Snaefell.

0:43 - Nice dot matrix display there...

Don’t know if you both have ever seen the film Mindhorn with Julian Barratt but there’s a few locations in this video from the film if you haven’t I’d recommend it it shows the Laxey Wheel and the river tunnel etc

Awesome Video really enjoyed

That shot at 9:10 could be used in a Hammer Horror film - just brilliant.

at 11.00 there is the weirdest set of points but you didn't comment

That was brilliant well done 👍👍

it's a trolley pole. Not a pantograph!

Robin of Laxey.

That was a very unusual turnout on the top of the Snaefell. It had a single switch blade rather than a normal pair of blades.

Strange edit around 7.25 which is not from the Mountain railway. Tram will stop practically anywhere if you want it to. Did you notice the unusual points at the top of the Mountain?

Absolutely brilliant 2nd part of the manx documentary. Andrew was a star and Vicky I think you have a new job. Also how do I get hold of "All the Stations" t-shirt.

I'm so annoyed that I didn't know you were on the Isle of Man at the same time as me. Would've loved to spot you!

The timing on that was just thinking if episode 2 was out 😁

There are fifteen official stops on the Manx Electric Railway. There is an undefined number of unofficial stops. The question posed does not have one correct answer.

Classic episode guys

You should visit the model railway in Ridgeway Park in Chingford if you haven't already. It's been there for years and I've read it has links with Disney.

.... oh, by the way, how windy was it? (heh heh). Great that the TT got a mention because I love watching that.

Who's idea was it to show Vicki's posture very nice I'm sure probably Geoff's idea

The question is, are there any bungalows at Bungalow?

Please do also the Mount Snwdon Railway!!!
