The Snaefell Mountain Railway descends from the Summit to Bungalow along the open south face of Snaefell itself. Sheep are a constant hazard, one is on the track ahead, causing the driver to slow down nearly to a stop before the sheep then moved out of the way. The station building at Bungalow is visible, as is the A2 road passing from mid left to top right. The A2 is part of the famous Tourist Trophy (TT) motorcycle course.
