[edit] Kew

Please don't change the redlinked Kew railway station to the existing Kew Bridge or Kew Gardens - it refers to a now-closed station served the area prior to the construction of Strand-on-the-Green railway bridge, which doesn't have its own article yet, and not to either of the existing stations iridescent (talk to me!) 21:56, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Misleading redirection

Links to the halts on this line re-direct to this page and so lose their details such as next/previous stations. Maybe one day the halts will get individual articles.--SilasW (talk) 15:07, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Mainline"

Isn't "mainline" rather too a grand word to apply to the branch? Some other WP articles use "heavy rail" to exclude Tubes &c.--SilasW (talk) 20:18, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Don't think "heavy rail" is appropriate in this context to differentiate it from the Underground; remember that throughout the life of this line, the corresponding stretch of the District line was also used for the decidedly heavy task of coal haulage. I don't really think it's inaccurate to describe the western sections of the NLR as "mainline". iridescent 20:30, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
