a new railway line to Newport,Ventor,Cowes and/or Freshwater.

The Isle of Wight hasn't had a strong railway connection across the island since 1966 and a new line(s) would help decrease traffic and pollution, it would also help with bus times as right now it takes over a hour and a half to get to Freshwater from shanklin but with a new line it could remove up to half of the travel time
