Island Line, operating under South West Trains, is the train network that connects the towns and villages of the Isle of Wight. Use our Island Line train map to plan out where you want to go.
Island Line trains take you from the port hub of Ryde Pier Head down to the beautiful coastal town of Shanklin, train journeys are simple and efficient, with services departing every 30 minutes. They’ll also get you from Ryde to Shanklin in about the same amount of time. Unmissable for train fans, the Island Line is connected to the famous Isle of Wight Steam Railway (at Smallbrook Junction).
Yarmouth, Cowes and Ryde Pier Head are the three ports on the island that ferries from the mainland usually pull into. So for journeys to the east side of the Isle of Wight, Ryde Pier head is the most convenient choice. You can even book a train and ferry to the Isle of Wight through us!
