Place name "Lucerne" vs. "Luzern"

[edit]

At the moment this article mainly uses the former, which is the name by which the city is best known in English and in accordance with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Swiss_municipalities/Article_title_conventions

That policy, though, refers to titles for main articles about the locality. For this article I believe we should use "Luzern" throughout, for the following reasons:

  • The city canton and all surrounding ones are German speaking.
  • All signs, station names and documentation use the German name exclusively - it is never referred to there as "Lucerne".
  • The official name of the line, used correctly in the title, is "Luzern-Stans-Engelberg Bahn".

Any comments before I go ahead and do so?

Map

[edit]

I've added this - information from OpenStreetMap, Google Earth and local knowledge. There is lots of detail (all bridges and level crossings are included), but I think this gives a good picture of the character of the line. Some of the detail could be hidden by collapsible sections if necessary.
