Wartime veterans will be gathering in Douglas this weekend – as Isle of Man Railways celebrates its third Island at War event.
As well as a number of special events taking place over the weekend, there’ll also be a veterans train on Saturday afternoon.
At around 2pm, those who’ve served their country will take a steam train from Douglas to Castletown for a tea party and get-together.
Railway events coordinator Angie Street says it’s a great idea:
