Laxey Browside Tramway

The Laxey Browside Tramway was a water operated two-car system that transported passengers up the hillside to the Laxey water wheel on the Isle of Man. [cite web |title=The Industrial Archeology of the Isle of Man, Railways and Tramways |url=http://www.mers.org.im/keynotes5.htm] Consisting of two open cars that operated opposite ends of the small line, it was powered by the water that was also used to turn the mighty water wheel. The tramway was opened in 1890, but closed in 1906. [cite web |title=Isle of Man Cliff Railways |url=http://www.hows.org.uk/personal/rail/iom.htm |accessdate=2008-05-11]
