…Long hot Summer days, a sea voyage, and a vintage steam train waiting at the Pier Head to carry you to your destination…. such would be the memories that made the Isle of Wight and its little railways so popular. The loss of most of the system in the space of just 14 years between 1952 and 1966 has only added to the continuing interest of today’s collectors.EXCLUSIVE TO EBAY …  This original Isle of Wight ticket is listed ONLY on EBAYBRITISH TRANSPORT COMMISSION

3rd Class Privilege Return
A run along the Eastern section of the former Newport – Merstone – Sandown line. In the early 1950’s with large scale closures being proposed, it had been suggested that the Newport-Sandown line should be retained, rather than the Newport-Ryde. The reasoning was that the former generated more traffic from Southampton/Cowes to the East coast holiday resorts.
Horringford lost its connection to the seaside in February 1956, and the Newport-Ryde line survived a further ten years.
