Port Erin railway museum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Port Erin railway museum is a museum in Port Erin, Isle of Man that shows the history of the Isle of Man Steam Railway.
The museum is situated beside Port Erin railway station, the southern terminus of the railway. It is housed in part of the old engine shed, the other part still being used as a workshop to maintain the locomotives.
Exhibits in the museum include two engines, No 6 "Peveril" and No 16 "Mannin" and carriages as well as other equipment from the railway. The royal carriages, as used by HRH Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother in 1963 and by HM Queen Elizabeth II in 1972, are preserved in the museum.
