Port Erin Breakwater Railway
- Port Erin Breakwater Railway
The Port Erin Breakwater Railway was a construction line built in Port Erin on the Isle of Man in 1863 and had the distinction of being the first steam railway on the island. The locomotive was named Henry Brougham Loch after the then lieutenant governor of the island. Some photographs exist of the construction and locomotive but it is not known what became of any of the stock and assumed that it was returned to the mainland upon completion of the project.
