Isle of Wight Line (disused)
The present day Island Line terminates at Shanklin, but originally reached Ventnor. The line reached Ventnor in 1866 and remained open until 1966. The line is now disused between Shanklin and Ventnor. The section from Shanklin to Wroxall is used for National Cycle Route 23. Between Wroxall and Ventnor was the 1200m long St Boniface Down tunnel.
