As part of the 130th anniversary celebrations for Poulsom Park on Sunday, 28th June 2026 the Friends Of... replica cattle dock welcomed its first livestock in the form of two highland cattle (Tilda and Henry) courtesy of Moorhouse Farm in nearby Colby to create a feature as part of the adjacent event. 

This brings to fruition a long-term project of the volunteers who planned to reinstate the dock back in 2012 and have fundraised since this time, earlier in the year securing a grant from the Isle of Man Steam Railway Supporters’  Association to ensure the pen could be completed.

The group continue to fundraise and are planning to pay for the redecoration of the historic waiting room later in the year, as well as providing all-new signage around the site with an investment of £1,000.00 being put into this.  The Copy Shop are providing a whole range of new period signage.
