Hi, SounderBruce ( talk · contribs), why have you reverted my addition of factual information? The fact that partial preclearance applies on cross-border services is not contentious, and I see nothing unreliable or contentious about the Urbanist. Stifle ( talk) 10:09, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
While Via Rail is distinct from Amtrak, the Canadian departs for Toronto from the same Vancouver, BC station as the northern terminus of the Cascades. Since we have the Empire Builder and Coast Starlight marked on the route map, should we have the Canadian included as well? D ralwi k| Have a Chat 21:18, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
I have a few questions regarding recent revisions to the Amtrak Cascades page, mainly for SounderBruce ( talk · contribs). Firstly, thanks for organizing the citations by year.
Second, I realized you removed the Connections column from the station stops because of the WP:NOTGUIDE guideline, but I included that because other Amtrak route pages include connections (such as the Carolinian or Empire Service). Should I only include connections with major transit agencies, such as Sound Transit and Greyhound, and not include smaller agencies? I aim to increase parity between all of the Amtrak route pages so I'd like your thoughts on this moving forward.
Finally, I included the ticket revenue statistics because it was included on another route page with the ridership. Would those stats (and the OTP %) work better under a different heading, perhaps "Performance"?
Thank you for your help! Stormykara ( talk) 00:03, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
serve as visual cues that aid the reader's comprehension. Regardless, both of these issues (icons and what connections to include) should be raised as a larger forum (likely WikiProject Trains) as they affect numerous articles. Pi.1415926535 ( talk) 03:15, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
Does the route include boarding in Longview, going North to olympia? 131.150.232.227 ( talk) 18:04, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
