Douglas Bay Horse Tramway - Stored Fleet

Stored Fleet

In addition to the regularly used trams, there are a number of cars that see little use but are kept in the sheds adjacent to the station; these cars are in a number of styles and are maintained to a high standard by the staff but see very rare outings along the promenade, being out of favour compared to the fleet which carry advertising boards along their lengths.

  • No. 12 - open toastrack with lamp standards on ends and large fleet numbers
  • No. 33 - roofed toastrack, in regular operation but carrying no advertisements
  • No. 34 - roofed toastrack, in regular operation but carrying no advertisements
  • No. 39 - "long" (extended) open toastrack, currently carries no advertising panels
  • No. 42 - "long" (extended) open toastrack, complete with ornate hanging lamps on bulkheads, no adverts

Famous quotes containing the words stored and/or fleet:

    Health can be squandered, but not stored up.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Believe me, if all those endearing young charms,
    Which I gaze on so fondly today,
    Were to change by tomorrow, and fleet in my arms,
    Like fairy-gifts fading away.
    Thomas Moore (1779–1852)
