Take a train ride to Ryde. Sorry, couldn't resist the pun! We take our first trip to the quaint island railway of the Isle of Wight, as we take a Class 483 commuter service from Shanklin to Ryde. Check out the series playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLalu5P0v3O2Kgln9lOR-lWTYsSiUPbICq The train I'm driving is actually one of the longest served trains in the UK. Manufactured in 1938 and still going today, these trains have been kicking about for over 75 years! Initially in use with the London Underground before taking over service on the Isle of Wight, the rolling stock was given the designation of Class 483 to comply with TOPS.
