- Ideally it would be good to get the Branch/named lines opening and closing dates where applicable.
If anyone is lurking around this article, it would be good to see some bits and pieces added or any possible links to the various enthusiasts websites would be great!vcxlor 12:46, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
- I am keen to research and add more details of branch lines, sidings, stations, yards, locos etc but a bit unsure of the naming standards to keep the article police at bay. I also think a tighter category would be useful, something like 'Rail transport in Western Australia' or 'Railways of Western Australia' cheers Nachoman-au 05:13, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- Good suggestion - the title of this art was known by most in the old days as 'the wagr', but for off-shoot arts would be good with something like 'Rail Transport of Western Australia' - as the dominant 'railroad' moniker supporters cannot come and do edits if we dont carry the 'railway' word! vcxlor 09:04, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- Thanks for the comments vxclor. While poking around google I can across this good reference for Named Passenger trains in the WAGR era [1] Nachoman-au 13:56, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Incorporattion of non wagr info into this art
I have sent a personal message to grahamerec about the non wagr info - I am assuming thaat this art was not started as 'the history of rail transport in wa" but specifically the wagr - I would suggest a separate l;inked art for that title and the editing/moving of some of the stuff inserted here to an art with thaat broader picture. also I really hadnt intended - on the creation of this article to include post wagr info either - the wagr existed within a particular window of time - I would suggest more recent incarnations deserve separate arts. Comments from other editors would be appreciated. SatuSuro 12:29, 3 June 2006 (UTC) aka vcxlor
