Taken from a train on the Isle of Wight Steam Railway.

Taken from a train on the Isle of Wight Steam Railway. I assume that this elderly railway carriage has been acquired by the railway, to be restored. Judging by those in use when we visited, the transformation would be something worth waiting for.

Smallbrook Junction is just that - a junction. The only means of getting to this station is by railway. When the Isle of Wight Steam Railway is not working, no trains stop at the adjoining Island Line station. When the railways were fully operational on the Isle of Wight they were steam powered and this line and what remains of the Ryde to Ventor line were connected. Now this preserved line runs from here and the 'mainline' runs from Ryde Pierhead to Shanklin. www.ipernity.com/doc/364457/26200383
