[edit] Transport in Sheffield

Hi Talltim, and thanks for your recent edit to the above. I note that you have changed the date to 2005. This is undoubtedly correct, but I was unaware that any changes had occurred since then, and so leaving it as it was is also correct. Would you mind outlining any changes you think have gone on for me? L.J.Skinnerwot|I did 23:55, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

The change is that the link from Tinsley yard east to the Midland 'old road' is now severed around the Parkway bridge area. I know this from a site visit. I'm not sure when this occured but if you check on Google Maps satellite imagery the track is still continuous but overgrown, whereas the Microsoft Local Live imagery shows the same in a aerial view but the angled view shows a good 200yd gap. The angled view imagery seems more recent as the site of the MPD is more like it is is now. I changed the date to 2005 as that is the latest date I'm sure is correct. (BTW I'm never sure where to reply to comments on my talk page, should it be your talk page or my own, or even in this case the talk page of the page in question (although it seems not a have a talk page of its own, rather it uses the Project Sheffield one if I've read the situation right?)?)

[edit] Gayness of Attercliffe

Hi - thanks for your note. I think the Soho comment is hyperbole, and I'd be quite happy to see that struck. There are currently at least two gay/queer/LGBT venues in Attercliffe, and discussions on Sheffield Forum suggest some more will open. However, it should be pretty easy to source that it had declined significantly from the 70s and 80s. Finally, I used LGBT

deliberately, as there was always a thriving trans scene there - I believe Club Xes is still well known for it - and to me, "gay" usually excludes women and bisexuals, which isn't very true of Attercliffe. Warofdreams talk 16:47, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Edits to my talk page

Cheers to catching those and dealing with them :). Can't really understand why that person chose me - I haven't had any dealings with them... ~~ [Jam][talk] 11:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Unston station

It was called Unston until 1908 presumably because someone on the Midland forgot the E, which was then added. Chevin (talk) 16:48, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Killimarsh stations

"PS are you sure that Killamarsh Mildand was called that? My impression was that it was just Killamarsh, as was the GC station until renaming to Killamarsh Central" I am not quite sure about this, I just presumed it was called Killamarsh Midland and Central due to it being called that on the route map on wikipedia. Should the original name be used or the name at closure?

Great Central Main Line (diagram) - this is the diagram (its very detailed). (talk) 17:53 28 May 2008 —Preceding comment was added at 17:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
