Maybe you could try Category:Wikipedians from Essex and also place notices e.g. at Wikipedia:WikiProject England. Simply south (talk) 19:41, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Réseau Guerlédan

I found a reference which may gives some credence to the mayor story, but does not state it as fact. Have added it to the article. Mjroots (talk) 20:50, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

I've added in the locomotives, but need a bit of local knowledge re the names now carried by Jubilee and France. Could you take a look please? Mjroots (talk) 06:48, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
Another query - Are you sure all four locos ran on the Réseau Guerlédan? According the the Fairbourne Railway's [website only two came from the RG. Mjroots (talk) 06:56, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

No - all four steam locos were built for it, BUT it was only France and Jubilee that ran on the line -the others never shipped there from the UK!- There was a galloping gose railcar (see Fairbourne Article) and a small shunting engine called Odd Job Willsmith3 (talk) 08:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to WikiProject Trains

Hello and welcome to the Trains WikiProject! Thank you for adding your name to our project membership list. Our goal is to build the most comprehensive and detailed guide to rail transport on Wikipedia. As a project member, you may add the project membership userbox to your user page if you wish.

If you haven't done so already, please add our main project page to your watchlist and take some time to review the Trains project manual of style where we have collected guidelines and suggestions on notability and style for a consistent representation of rail transport related material. If you're curious about where to start, we've gathered a few suggestions in the Trains project to do list. If you'd like to specialize in a particular area of study within rail transport, take a look at the current Trains project task forces.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on the project talk page or on my talk page. Again, welcome and happy editing! Slambo (Speak) 16:48, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi Will, I see that you are busy updating assessments. Could I ask a favour on future assessments? If you just add an importance=, such as "importance=low", it only goes into the WP Trains assessment; the UK Trains project remains unassessed for importance. What is needed is, for example, an "importance=low" and an "UK-importance=low". Mid, High, etc, could also be used when appropriate; and the UK-importance could be different to the WPTrains importance, e.g. something might have greater (or lesser) importance to us in the UK than world-wide. (Only one class is needed). Thanks.Pyrotec (talk) 18:25, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Skarloey Railway

Hi Will, I noticed you'd added the Category:Talyllyn Railway to the Skarloey Railway article. Could I argue the case for not doing that? I think the category should be kept for articles about the real railway. There's a real danger of conflating the fictional world with the real one, that I think we should avoid. Of course this is not a big deal either way, just wanted to give you my own thoughts on the matter. Thanks again for all your help on the Talyllyn Railway articles.

Not a problem - edit reverted Willsmith3 (talk) 17:30, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Thanks. The links to the locomotive articles make a lot of sense to me. Best, Gwernol 18:27, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
