VISITORS at Manchester Museum are up over a third since the introduction of a new T Rex called Stan.
New director Dr Nick Merriman said that the 40ft long skeleton is now the star attraction at the Oxford Road museum.
Visitor numbers have increased from 140,000 to 190,000 since Stan first appeared in November 2004.
