Route map

[edit]

Most if not all railway lines in Adelaide have a route map embedded as a Template file into the infobox. This page, however, has it coded directly into the article. I don't think myself clever enough ATM to convert/recode the article map into the as yet uncreated Template: Bridgewater railway line... JabberJawJAPAN talk 13:22, 9 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Closure date

[edit]

I am not sure why there are 3 different closure dates of the Bridgewater line in use:

The Adelaide Advertiser in a couple of articles in the week prior, State Transport Authority's 1988 annual report and the Bridgewater Inn all state the service was withdrawn on 26 July.
Conceivably some stations could have been closed a few months earlier in April, but given that the STA had been seeking to withdraw the service since at least 1985, unlikely that a station closure here and there was going to have much of an impact. Am guessing the September date may have been a formal closure date, although the 23rd being a Wednesday, unlikely to have been the last day of any operations, given that a new timetable would usually take effect from a Sunday or Monday.
