Summary

| Description |
English: The British Rail Class 483 electric multiple units were originally built as 1938 tube stock units for London Underground. They were extensively refurbished between 1989 and 1992 by Eastleigh Works, for use on services on the Isle of Wight's Island Line. This was despite having already been used for nearly 50 years on the London Underground network. The units replaced the even older and life-expired British Rail Classes 485 and 486 units which were introduced in 1967, but were originally built as 'Standard' stock units for the London Electric Railway in 1923. The trains are 82 years old and still in service as of 2020, making them the oldest passenger trains in Great Britain to remain in regular service. They are due to be taken out of service in early 2021, with the line closed between 4 January to 31 March 2021 for upgrade works before being replaced by Class 484s in April. |
