Wightline was initially a coach operator but started a rival open top bus service to Southern Vectis from Yarmouth to Alum Bay. Former Brighton Leyland PD's were used for this service still in Brighton colours but fleet livery was applied to some. The service did not survive as Vectis fought back with more buses, and of course, they were the only operator able to run to the Needles.
