Port St. Mary (Read 817 times)

toms Junior Member Offline Posts: 85 Colby Gender:	Port St. Mary Feb 1^st, 2010 at 1:50pm Can anyone shed any light on when the proposed works to PSM station are actually going to start, if at all? There have been questions in the press over unpaid tax bills regarding the owner of street heritage, so i wondered if anyone knew anything.

Another victim of the credit crunch?. the plans for the building as submitted looked to be excellent and obviously there would have been a spin off for the railway with the improved passenger facilities. It can only be hoped that someone can be found to take over the building and restore it to its former glories as it will quickly go down hill if left in its present condition. One of the most imposing narrow guage stations in these islands, highlights the traffic that was once generated by Port St Mary in its heyday.

As I'm sure others have noticed, there is some work being undertaken at PSM station. Or at least, there's some scaffolding gone up.

Can anyone shed any light on what is being done? Something tells me its probably just some remedial works to stop the building falling down rather than a full on restoration; but it is great to see some work being done.
