A very good article!
I found it easy to read, and only have spotted a few minor spelling mistakes:
Abet – albeit
The Class 01s where – were
Withdrawls – Withdrawals
Isle of Wright – Wight
You could also consider linking to these heritage railways where appropriate in the text:
http://www.nrm.org.uk – National Railway Museum
http://www.iwsteamrailway.co.uk – Isle of Wight Steam Railway
With these h2g2 articles potentially able to be linked to.
A304237 - Railways on the Isle of Wight, UK (I remember having a ride in the cab on one of the 03s in the early 80s during an open day)
A751952 – Thomas the Tank Engine
Oh – as you mentioned Salty, isn't Diesel (the most famous Diesel in the series) an 08?
I'm looking forward to reading the next one in the series!

Sorry - I meant to chase up on this more yesterday, but got distracted and forgot about it before I reported it properly
Glad it's all sorted out now, though.
