[edit] Line change

My edits made on the Oxenholme Lake District, Lancaster and Preston stations were reverted. Baisically, I repelaced Preston from the next stop bit of the Windermere and Furness lines with (West Coast Main Line). This follows the format of the individual lines' pages, and indicates that although the line ends, through services move on to the other line.

At the moment, these boxes contradict the lines' pages as they suggest Lancaster and Preston are on the Windermere line; theya re not. I feel that my changes would give Wikipedia more consistency. Below is the example of my box:

  Preceding station     National Rail     Following station  
Carnforth   TransPennine Express
(Furness Line)
  (West Coast Main Line)

To indicate that the through services are transpennine, another box could be added reading:

  Preceding station     National Rail     Following station  
Preston   Virgin Trains
(West Coast Main Line)
  Oxenholme Lake District

This would follow the format of other lines with multiple providers
