Gov's horse tram figures incorrect says council 

Incorrect figures have been published concerning the amount of money generated by the horse trams. 

That's according to Douglas Council which has spoken out to set the record straight.

The council says it wants to clarify the position regarding passenger numbers and income in 2015 - the final year it operated the service before it was passed to government. 

In Tynwald last month the Infrastructure Minister had claimed 48,722 passengers were carried generating £57,915. 

However the council says the figures are out and it actually generated £117,279 after carrying 50,937 people.
