Belle Vue Halt (For Port-E-Vullen), also known as Bellevue (Manx: Stadd Reayrt Aalin), is an intermediate stopping place on the northern section of the Manx Electric Railway on the Isle of Man.
Location[edit]
It is situated between Lewaigue Station and Ramsey, the line's northern terminus. The poles bearing the overhead lines on the M.E.R. 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.
Shelter[edit]
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.[1]
