Island Line Class 483 (ex-London Underground 1938 Stock) EMUs 483007 (in the shed) and 483009 have been repainted into an almost exact recreation of their original London Transport livery, the only exception being the mandatory yellow warning pannel that must be carried on all main line stock.

Island Line Class 483 (ex-London Underground 1938 Stock) EMUs at Ryde St John's Road depot on the Isle of Wight. From left to right are 483007, 483002 and 483004.
483009 has been repainted into an almost exact recreation of its original London Transport livery, the only exception being the mandatory yellow warning pannel that must be carried on all trains on the main line. In complete contrast is the unique livery carried by the rest of the Island Line fleet - a yellow and blue base with vinyls of dinosaurs on the sides. This livery reflects the jurassic heritage of the island, its status as a family holiday resort and the age of the trains - at nearly 70 years old they are by far the oldest trains running in regular mainline service.

It, and 483007, which can just be seen in the shed behind, have been repainted into an almost exact recreation of their original London Transport livery, the only exception being the mandatory yellow warning pannel that must be carried on all trains on the main line.

One of the Island Line 'tube trains' has been put into its old London Underground livery, the one addtitional requirement being
the yellow warning panel at the front. No 007 is seen here at Smallbrook Junction which connects with Isle of Wight Steam Railway.
This station is only open when the Steam Railway is operating. The train is seen departing for Ryde Pier Head on the 30th August 2003.

Ex-London Underground stock dating from 1938 now forms the trains on the Island Line on the Isle of Wight.
In quite possibly its original livery the only red unit is seen departing Shanklin on the 30th August 2003,
65 years after it was built.
