Capitals![edit]

I have Motive Power Recognition:3 EMUs by Colin J. Marsden (mid 1980s) in which all the Southern units' codes are given as capitals. best, Sunil060902 (talk) 14:08, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conversely, SEG's stock directory lists the codes in proper case format. This is how they were originally used on the southern. The upper case format only came in with computerisation, prior to this the format was proper case. Railwayfan2005 (talk) 21:13, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Intro[edit]

"These units were based on the earlier Southern Railway 4Cor design, built in 1937."

Really? They clearly look based on the BR Mark 1 coach with cabs addedPatrick lovell (talk) 15:52, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Possible change to the title of this article[edit]

This article is currently named in accordance the Wikipedia:WikiProject UK Railways naming conventions for British rolling stock allocated a TOPS number. A proposal to change this convention and/or its scope is being discussed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject UK Railways#Naming convention, where your comments would be welcome.

South Eastern Trains[edit]

An editor has recently modified the list of operators to include South Eastern Trains (SET). All of this class were withdrawn before this operator existed.

Yes, it is correct that SET is a successor company to Connex, but these units were NOT operated by the successor company.

Can editors please use their commonsense before making such changes to the list of operators. If you do not understand the subject on which you are editing, then please refrain from making edits that are factually untrue. Bhtpbank (talk) 21:19, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vehicle 70576 location[edit]

Out of an abundance of caution, I'm asking a question here. Vehicle 70576 location is listed as being located at Snibston Discovery Park, which according to Reliable Sources closed in 2015. The Reliable Sources at the Snibston Wikipedia page don't mention the fate of the vehicle, but there is a RS on the Snibston Wikipedia page stating the track has gone to the Great Central Railway. Flickr has photos of the vehicle at the Great Central Railway, and the Railway Heritage Register Carriage Survey Project database has the vehicle at the GCR. The Carriage Survey Project is used as a reference for two other vehicles on the Class 411 page. Could Flickr and/or Carriage Survey Project be used as reliable sources? I note that the current info for this vehicle is not referenced. Either way, the info regarding this vehicle appears to be incorrect. In the absence of these being RS, should the info be deleted as incorrect, be added to the article 'Citation needed' or alter to' it used to be at Snibston' (or similar)?

thanks
