Inital comments

[edit]

This looks to be quite a reasonable article that should make GA this time around.

I have a few minor comments and at this stage I'm mostly going to highlight "problems". I'm leaving the WP:Lead until last; otherwise, if I don't make a comment here about a particular section that probably means that I regard it as being OK. I will provide an overall summary at the end. Pyrotec (talk) 16:56, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • History -
  • Ref 5 (Daniels & Dench 1973) is a book, so you aught to provide a page number, or numbers, such as in refs 9 and 10.

.... to be continued. Pyrotec (talk) 17:01, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This article is clearly about the post-Beaching line. Its history under GWR and BR represents about three quarters of one paragraph.

No further comments.
