I thought you'd like to see a couple more entries for the Railway Gardening Competition, both seen on a jolly family outing to Vectis on Bank Holiday Monday.
Here's the start of our trip at Hook.
My son said that this was "lacking in colour", so it may not be a winning entry.He also pointed out that the vegetation is beginning to obscure the bases for the new signals (which were installed about 18 months ago as part of the Basingstoke resignalling phase II or III ... but that's another story).
Here's what we found at the other end.
Now this really is a Railway Garden.
It was installed on the disused Up platform at Shanklin some years ago (probably during Island Rail's short-lived period of UDI).
I think a machete is advised now if you want to admire its charms.
