Steam 125
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Steam 125 was a series of events held in 1998 to mark the 125th anniversary of the Isle of Man Railway opening its first route from Douglas to Peel. This line was closed in 1968 but the line to Port Erin which opened the following year remains in operation. Although there are still annual events, this was the last of the "big" railway events on the island which had begun with the Year of Railways in 1993 to mark the centenary of the Manx Electric Railway.
