A Great Way to Spend a Rainy Day on The Isle of Man

A Great Way to Spend a Rainy Day on The Isle of Man - The Manx Electric Railway...

I woke up to heavy rain on my one day on the Isle of Man, but had an idea how I could see much of the island and stay relatively dry. Join me onboard The Manx Electric Railway as we ride the full length of the route from Douglas up to Ramsey. It's not the day I had planned, but that's travel and that's weather, so let's get out there and make the most of it.

I don’t pretend to be a travel expert, but I love what I do and would be honoured if you came along with me. My channel focusses on the wide-eyed wonder and excitement of finding somewhere new, and my genuine reaction to it. You might not get a history lesson in my videos, but who knows, you might pick up some useful travel tips along the way, add a few destinations to your bucket list and hopefully be entertained by what you see. Thanks for watching, it means a lot to me :)
I do ALL of this myself. Planning, filming, editing, promoting, all with a weekly upload schedule, so please understand not every video will be an epic adventure. But my pledge is to always do my best in any situation.

FAQs:
WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
I was born in Glasgow but have lived in Carnoustie, Dalgety Bay, Stonehaven, Edinburgh, Montrose, and further afield (Salamanca, Spain & Devonport, New Zealand)
WHEN DO YOU UPLOAD?
Saturdays at 10am Scottish time. Occasionally a bonus midweek video will pop up.
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
I film with a GoPro11 and my iPhone12. I edit on iMovie and use epidemicsound.com for music. I also use canva.com for thumbnails etc.
WHY DON'T YOU SPEND LONGER AT DESTINATIONS?
The usual suspects I'm afraid - time and money! Hotels especially these days make my eyes water like a true Scotsman.
WHERE'S ALICJA?
Alicja will feature as often as possible, but I'm afraid she has a proper job so it can take weeks for our schedules to match up.
DO YOU PAY FOR YOUR OWN TRAVEL?
Yes I do. I've only ever accepted a complementary ticket as compensation for a previous problem. All my opinions are frank and honest reflections of travel as I experience it.
WHY THE ADS?
It's my income, I can't do this for free.
CAN I CONTACT YOU?
I used to list my email address but felt bad not having the capacity to respond to everything so took it down (and I got a LOT of spam so missed many genuine messages along the way).
HOW CAN I SUPPORT THE CHANNEL?
Watching my videos is of course support enough, but if you'd like to support further, I'll pop links below for Paypal and Patreon. All kind donations are super-appreciated and will go 100% towards future filming trips.
DO YOU ACCEPT SPONSORSHIPS?
I don't like to upset the flow of my videos, so I don't even include mid-roll ads anymore (at significant loss of income to myself), so I prefer not to include sponsorships either. I'm open to a small slide at the start/end of each video, but I don't want to get into talking about products, it's something I don't like as a viewer myself (especially as a viewer who pays for KZfaq Premium). So it's probably a polite no, although all of this goes out the window if you offer me something which can give me the chance to make a video for my audience that would otherwise be impossible.

Now that was lovely! 🤗 Those trams look like pubs on wheels, very pretty! I guess they are forgiven the clack of comfiness for their charme! Defintely another place I'd love to see myself! 🤩 Thanks for showing us around, Mate! 🙏🤗

Thank you, very informative. I realy enjoy your videos. There are some South Africans living on the Isle of man. Now I can see how beautifull other countries and Islands are kept, we use to be like that, not any more. Keep up the good work.❤

Lovely video Steve. I love travelling on Trams and those two were special, sadly we have no trams in our country. The scenery was lovely even if the weather was bad. Thank Steve

It was great to see them still running strong, they almost lost them years ago but thankfully the IoM government stepped in to save them
