what is it?
This article details Trailer Nos. 34–39 of the Manx Electric Railway on the Isle of Man. These lightweight trailers were purchased in 1894 for the opening of the new part of the line between Groudle Glen and Laxey Station and were of lightweight construction; of the four supplied only two survive today, with 38 and 39 having been lost in the Laxey Car Sheds fire of 1930 and not replaced.
