[edit] Improving the article
I was wondering if anyone out there would be interested in working with me to seriously enhance this article's depth and scope. I'd like to see just how far we could take this article, perhaps even to Good Article status - ideally get it so far as Featured Article status on the anniversary of the disaster one year, but that would obviously require a huge deal of work. I have often thought about significantly expanding this article as it is a topic very close to me, but found it too hard so far as I lost two relatives in the disaster and a third relative was one of the very few second class survivors (I lost another four relatives in the Hyde railway disaster, an article I'd also like to see enhanced - makes you wonder why on earth I'm a railfan!). If we were to make a serious effort to boost the quality of the article, though, that would help motivate me to add all that I can. I can provide more textual detail of the actual disaster, but we could also probably use things like photos of the accident itself, a location map, a map of where the carriages ended up, etc. So is there any interest out there? - Axver 00:45, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
