[edit] Todo

  • There are an enormous number of named trains to add to the list.
  • Add sections for each continent's named passenger trains
  • Fill in missing data for those trains that are known

[edit] N.B.

Eurostar and Thalys are not named trains; they are train types -- Picapica 11:45, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Have just added a few randomly chosen European named trains from the hundreds of them running now (not even considering all the ones that formally ran -- there must be at least 150 past-and-present named trains in Great Britain alone!), for the purpose of trying out the table (very hard work in that format, I'm afraid!) -- Picapica 16:34, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Jslasher

Much work needs to be done to update the list of named passenger trains in North America. Having travelled on many trains, the information of which I have recently updated to the best of my ability, I am pleased to contribute where ever possible. I expect to submit a contribution on the Illinois Central Panama Limited in the near future.--Jslasher 22:25, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Seperate subheading for great britain?

The Great Britain list has now grown considerably. Should it now have its own subheading, like India, Australia and Japan? Our Phellap 00:07, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] You ain't seen nothing yet!

If you look at this list you will see that there is rather a long way to go!. If Cecil J Allen didn't include it, then it didn't exist ... Peter Shearan 12:41, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
