I think our heritage needs safe guarding for future generations, whether it makes a profit or not.

The horse trams are a unique and iconic part of the Island's heritage. They can't be scrapped!

Douglas Corporation acts on behalf of the rate payers. Change your mind on this decision.

It is part of the Manx identity and heritage. Our MHKs have a responsibility to save the horse trams for future generations.

Would be a travesty to scrap a piece of history enjoyed by so many and something that is also a tourist attraction.

After visiting the island for many years and enjoying the horse drawn tram as a part of my experience. I would be saddened to see this unique experience disappear

They should teach the idiots who drive along the prom at speed with music blaring to drive before they get rid of the horse trams. Many are quoting that the trams get in the way of the traffic - well, since the trams are 140 years old they predate the motor transport....they were here first!

The horse trams bring pleasure to thousands of tourists and local residents every year. It is part of our Lovely island....please do not let financial or logistical reasons destroy that...

Beautiful for the people who live in the IOM to see & visitors love it. Please don't scrap this. It is worth the upkeep for the publicity for tourism.

This is outrageous, why get rid of one of the last main attractions on the Isle of Man, they call themselves leisure and tourism but they won't find much tourism if they get destroy on of the main icons of the Island. You would think they had nothing better to do with their time other than find more beautiful things to destroy and make more hideous monstrosities.
