Sure, I can do south of the border! A selection of scanned slides from several trips to the Isle of Wight in the late 1980's and 1990's. Mainly Southern Vectis's smart fleet around the island in 1987, 1990, 1993 and 1997 along with a few private operator shots. Some wonderful Lodekka rides at various times there plus of course the superb open topped Bristol RE 864 AKA Shanklin's Pony. A great place to spend a few days....about time I went back with a digital camera.

These slides are taken on a variety of 100 and 200 ASA slide film and scanned with a Nikon Coolscan V ED film scanner.

Thanks for visiting - haste ye back.
