[edit] Template

I've created a template showing the line as it is now, and which parts are which gauge. I'm not sure if it would be worth Also showing the former WWI Ligne des 100 Jours, WWII metre gauge line from Lanchères-Pendé to Ault, and the metre gauge line to Crécy (closed).

[edit] To do

Sections on opening and closing both need rewriting. First line to SVSS opened in 1858, SNCF worked Std gauge line to SVSS until 1989. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjroots (talkcontribs) 17:17, 6 December 2007 (UTC) Y Done Mjroots (talk) 11:20, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Expand rolling stock section - Locomotives, Passenger and Freight stock. Describe original SE/CFBS stock first, then other preserved stock brought in from elsewhere. Mjroots (talk) 11:27, 11 December 2007 (UTC) Y Done Mjroots (talk) 16:20, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

Add photos of all stations and all locomotives, and a selection of rolling stock. Mjroots (talk) 22:36, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Refs needed?

The reference for the info I'm adding is aleady quoted at the bottom of the article. Once i work out how to link the two I will do so. Mjroots (talk) 09:17, 11 December 2007 (UTC)Y Done I'm going to remove the refs needed tag as it is all red'd now.Mjroots (talk) 16:24, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Images

I've added two images from the French articles. They need captions adding but I don't know how to do it. Mjroots (talk) 11:48, 11 December 2007 (UTC) Y Done Mjroots (talk) 22:34, 11 December 2007 (UTC)

I changed the ref for the Y2100 class loco by making it into an interwiki link instead. Have expanded the intro a bit, but it probably still needs further expansion. Mjroots (talk) 17:29, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
