Reviewer: Eisfbnore ^talk 17:26, 19 June 2011 (UTC) Overall, this is a very short and sweet article with few outstanding problems. A few comments:

• Opening sentence: "Åndalsnes Station […] is a railway station at Åndalsnes in Rauma, Norway." – is "at" the correct preposition here?
  • I was trying to avoid a double in, and to be honest I not sure if it is grammatically correct or not. Reworded. ¨Arsenikk ^(talk)
• "It has been the terminal station of the Rauma Line since the station opened on 30 November 1924." – perhaps say that the line opened on that date.
  • Yes. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
• "In addition to a station building, the station has an engine shed; it also acts as a bus station and is located next to a cruise ship port." – confusing - is it the station building or the engine shed which acts as a bus station?
  • The lesson here it to not copyedit late at night. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
• "In 1912, test were done" – please fix the grammer.
• "…the water system was not opened until 10 February 1925.[7] From 29 November 1924, Norsk Spisevognselskap established a restaurant in the station." – Again, the prepositions seem wrong. I would swap "until" for "before" and "from" for "on". But perhaps I'm wrong.
  • Pretty sure until is correct, but the latter sentence was incorrect. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
• "Åndalsnes Station was taken into use on 30 November 1924" – "opened" or "brought into use" would fit better.
  • Fixed. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
• "Åndalsnes Station is located in downtown Åndalsnes. It is located at 4 meters (13 ft) above mean sea level and is 457 kilometers (284 mi) from Oslo Central Station.[5]" – these two sentences could be merged.
  • M-m. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
• In the bibliography but with no citations: Hartmann et al.
  • Hm, I guess that was because of a copy and paste from Bjorli Station. Fixed. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
• Are you sure that the isbn for Rauma kulturstyre is correct? It gives no results at neither GBooks, WorldCat nor Amazon.
  • ISBN is correct, both according to the book and according to Bibsys. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

• Thanks. The Bibsys entry also told me that Andreas Normann authored the book. Could he be added? --Eisfbnore ^talk 20:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

• No. As the book states, he gave his collection of sources and pictures to the public library in 1988 and died in 1990. The book is based on his archive (thus being part of Normann-samlingen) but is not authored by him. I agree that Bibsys hasn't quite noted this correctly, though.

Placing on hold. --Eisfbnore ^talk 17:26, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick review. All has been seen to. Arsenikk ^(talk) 18:58, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Good. I did a light spotcheck of the sources that were available online (I found the Rauma Line book at NB Digital – win ), and everything I looked at checked out. Passing. --Eisfbnore ^talk 20:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
