Douglas railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the railway station on Isle of Man. For the station in Florida, see Douglas Road (Metrorail station).
Douglas railway station serves Douglas, the capital of the Isle of Man. It is the terminus for the Port Erin to Douglas line of the Isle of Man Steam Railway but in the past also had a branch line to Peel on the west of the island.
The building housing the station is the original Victorian building. Outside the station a grand archway stands at the end of Athol Street with two gilt-topped turrets, between which a set of steps descends to the station. An entrance is also available at the bottom of the hill without requiring the use of steps.
The station is located on the southern side of Douglas at the end of the North quay. It has car parking available and is serviced by nearby bus services from many locations on the island.
