Belle Vue railway station, Isle of Man

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Belle Vue (for Port-e-Vullen) is a stop on the northern section of the Manx Electric Railway (MER) between Lewaigue Station and Ramsey, the MER's northern terminus. The poles bearing the overhead lines on the MER are numbered from Douglas and Belle Vue can be found at pole 846.[1] The halt is located on the A15 road to Maughold Village and is actually closer to Port Lewaigue than to Port-e-Vullen. Until 2001, there was a corrugated iron lineside shelter at the stop. Following some local controversy over its demolition, it was eventually replaced by a wooden structure originally located at Port Jack, north of Douglas..[2]
