The infrastructure minister's been responding to recommendations set out in a report looking into the Isle of Man's heritage railways.

Transport consultancy firm SYSTRA estimates the network brings a boost to the Manx economy of around £17 million each year.

The long-awaited publication has been subject of scrutiny in the Island's political sittings, where members queried why it was yet to be made public.

The recommendations have now been published, but a date that the full review is likely to be published remains unknown.

Manx Radio's Christian Jones sat down with Minister Tim Crookall to discuss the findings.
