Heritage, history, unique. When will the idiots ruining the Island realise it is things like this that bring visitors (as i am).

Move them away from the traffic, but please save them in some form.

I was brought up on the IOM and love the island's quirky transport options - including the iconic horse trams. Please don't close this unique attraction!

The horse trams need to be saved as they bring pleasure to old and young alike and are part of our Manx heritage

The horse trams are an important part of our heritage and should be saved. The trams should be kept on the island.

It is part of our heritage. Should be preserved for my kids and their kids.

Once upon a time there was a railway from Ramsey to Peel amd then onto Douglas. It was decided that such an amazing line was not worth keeping and has been wiped off the island in all but a few locations. I wasnt around for that and as I had not been born, but I wish it was kept as it would have been an amazing sight and something to make this island truely stand out. I dont want my future children saying the same about the horse trams. Dont be so narrow minded.

Should be run and mantained by the IOMG as part of the tourist industry

Don't get rid of something else that is and has been for a long time, part of the Island.

Please reconsider your decision. It's one of the few Tourist Attractions left on the Island

Let's try to find a safe (for horses and users) way to keep the horse-trams but NOT on Douglas Promenade and NOT underwritten by Douglas rate-payers.

We have to retain this vital part of the Manx Heritage.
