The Department of Infrastructure lost £60,000 running Douglas horse trams last year - but saw a rise of more than 50 per cent in passengers.
Minister Ray Harmer gave the figures in Tynwald this week, in response to a question from Garff MHK Daphne Caine.
He said the trams had brought in an extra £26,000 this year, earning £83,500 in total from 68,500 passengers.
