It's another way too lose tourism, uniqueness of the island and a mistake to happen! Keeping up with the times in every way isn't necessarily a good thing, history means a lot and shouldn't be forgot. Please keep the horse trams!!!

A short sighted decision by short sighted politicians.

The horse and trams are iconic. They should be kept.

A poor decision made with little reference to the bigger picture. Its a selling point for the island as part of a package for families and heritage buffs (who spend more per head than many others). Should be government backed. Once gone its gone for good. Need to diversify our economic base more.

Once our living history is gone it is lost forever. please do not do this, it is the last commercial horse tram facility in the world. We have to keep it!

I'm an Indian settled on our beautiful & unique island from 2003. I talk about our isle to my friends & family around the world and they have been amazed with what our heritage is and that we have treasured & protected it so far. Please don't scrap the horse trams as we will be the only country in the world to have them one day!! Its our heritage, our Manx history. Please save it!!

I think the horse tram should stay part of the variety of trains/trams on the Island that are one if our tourist attractions and should be the responsibility of IOM Government. Maybe running a more economic and efficient schedule, but staying.

Is it so narrow minded Ness not to see how important that this is one of a kind horse tramway it is the oldest in the world and which has never stopped working you should be proud to be able to have such a historic peace of transport history in such fantastic condition if you endanger this you will cripple the Isle of Man's history.

This is part of our national heritage & should be maintained. Why are we paying so much for " tractor man" to pile seaweed into piles every day to be washed back out to sea? This money should be used to maintain the horse trams.
