Ballaglass Glen Halt


Ballaglass Glen Halt '' is an intermediate stopping place on the northerly section of the Manx Electric Railway on the Isle of Man.

Location

The halt is located at the entrance to the national glen of the same name and is served only by rail, there being no direct road access to this location.

Facilities

A wooden waiting shelter featuring a sprung gate which is to stop sheep from getting trapped inside it, such is the rural nature of the Manx Electric Railway and its environs. The current shelter was erected in 1987 replacing an earlier version of corrugated iron construction.

Substation

Nearby in a southerly direction is the sub-station building which can be seen through the trees from passing trams; today the majority of this building houses a private dwelling complete with swimming pool in the old boiler house, although a small sub-station still exists on site.
