Railways of the Isle of Wight by Marie Panter

Description

This book is a fascinating collection of over 100 black and white photographs showing the railways of the Isle of Wight in decades gone by, providing a fascinating pictorial record of the Island’s railway lines that have long since dissapeared. The book is packed with lots of black and white photographs showing the long lost stations and their trains…

The photographs show the steam locomotives, stations and platforms, and tracks and sidings of the lines on the Island, and sections include: The Tramway, the Freshwater Yarmouth and Newport Railway, Cowes to Newport, Sandown to Newport, Ventnor Town to Merstone, Newport to Ryde St Johns Road, Ryde Pier Head to Shanklin – The Island Line, and Shanklin to Ventnor.
