Is it correct that Maidstone and Canterbury have lost their second station? Surely Canterbury still has two and Maidstone three? rossb 15:00, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
no - what this article should say is that with the advent of the SECR the towns and cites with multiple stations needed sorting out. Gravesend, Rochester (not Chatham), Maidstone, Sevenoaks, Ashford, Whitstable, Canterbury, the isle of Thanet, Dover, (St Mary Cray junction ?), etc all have multiple stations - some of which (eg Thanet, Ashford, ?) were correct by SECR, while others weren't and subsequently closed (whitastable, Gravesend, ?) and some remain (Canterbury, Maidstone, ?) --160.5.247.213 20:47, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] CWR - spacebar
Sorry to be terribly nit-picking, but this material is so well crafted it seems a shame not to fix the number of cases where your spacebar seems not to have worked, after full-stops and commas.
What motivated the edit was the section about the variety of means of traction. In the end I found there weren't any grammatical errors, but at first I felt there was an error there somewhere. It's perfectly correct, but it "threw" me. Perhaps it would be smoother if parentheses replaced the two hypens (before "built" and after "1839") ? --Edetic 05:27, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Do whatever needs to be done mate, as they say "be bold" - I'm illiterate when it comes to grammar (i didn't write this article) Pickle 07:29, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
