Description
One for both Underground enthusiast's as well as BR! A sunny day in May 1988 sees us on a trip abroad, well to the Isle of Wight anyway! Here we see NSE at it's best, Ryde Rail. Refurb trains and stations, a new station and a good service, wonderfull days! And semaphore signalling to boot! Note the unit in the first shot is a Control Trailer, a driving cab but no motor equipment on this car. This had only recently been refurbed for service as the Standard Stock was on its last legs by this time and cars were failing all over and units were being reformed regularly. If you liked the video please subscribe to my channel, there are lots more transport & quirky vids to upload!
