What A Council Logo Says, Part 5 – Isle of Wight

What does your council's logo say about your area? After pondering this question whilst walking down the street, I decided to find out. In part 5 I visit a whole island, and ask that very question.

We were staying in Shanklin which is the final stop of the Isle of Wight's eight mile train system - running from the pier end at Shanklin, mere moments after you get off the catamaran - which meant we got to enjoy travelling the entire route of Wight's trains. The trains are operated by Island Line, the smallest railway franchise in the UK, which is owned by Stagecoach.
