Self-propelled vehicles

As well as our steam and diesel locomotives the railway is also home to some unusual self-propelled vehicles.

483007 ‘Jess Harper’ is one of the former London Underground trains than ran for many years on the Ryde to Shanklin line

Drewy Railcar No 2 once ran on the Ryde Pier tramway and is now operational at the Isle of Wight Steam Railway after a major reconstruction.

Details of our fleet can be found on the following pages:
