Port St Mary
(1874 - 1965 - seasonal)
Port St Mary Railway station is a station in Port St Mary in the south of the Isle of Man and is served by the Isle of Man Railway, having first opened in 1874 when the line to nearby
Port Erin was completed
When first opened the station had a wooden station structure with corrugated iron roof but at around the turn of the twentieth century this was replaced by the building which remains today. The village only received a station at all following public outcry when the proposed route was announced, with a request to deviate the line also being submitted, This was not carried out however, resulting in today's station being some distance from the heart of the village it serves. A small timber goods shed was provided in 1880 being of similar style to those elsewhere on the route
The station is currently up for sale and the former gasworks land to the rear is proposed to become another residential area following the closure of the works in 2012. The station remained manned by railway staff until the summer of 2014 and it is understood it will become unmanned from the 2015 season to reduce the railway's operating costs
