[edit] Split?

Should this article be split into separate articles on each train, and then redirected to Rail transport in New South Wales or something? A lot of the content is just summaries of the individual trains. It gets a bit difficult with the suburbans though - 'set' is not equal to 'carriage' like in Melbourne. Maybe it needs to be merged into CityRail fleet, with single deckers as a history section? Wongm (talk) 07:09, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

  • Its a fair point, although I think the aim of this article is to provide an overview of rollingstock, including historial trains that are no longer in service. Also not all trains are/were Cityrail trains. I think it is important however not to replicate what is already on the pages for individual trains. Some of the trains on this page probably don't have enogh information to justify their own pages, the ones that do should have a summary line then a link to the relevant page. So I would propose leaving it and perhaps reducing the info on trains that already have their own articles. Quaidy (talk) 03:11, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
