Recent track replacement work throughm, closed the Merstham tunnel between Saturday 25th October and Monday 3rd November 2008, closing the Merstham Tunnel. Can someone place the tunnel on the map? sailor iain ( talk) 15:25, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
Further to the above comment, the map is missing some descriptions in the section where the line divides. The left hand line is the Redhill line and has Merstham tunnel (1m 71yds), whilst on the right hand side is the Quarry line which has TWO tunnels; Quarry tunnel (1m 385 yds), followed by Redhill tunnel - NOT a typo (649 yds). Can the map be ammended to show the line and tunnel names correctly ?

a) surly the Gatwick Express is (was) part of services on the Brighton Main Line ? b) the quarry line is only a bypass line from Redhill to Croydon, avoiding the stopping stations, therefore that section is in effect four track rather than as the article implies, two track.

The main article page is very slow to load, it also freezes the browser window whilst loading, perhaps the route diagram should be a to linked page rather than part of the main page (with a warning about page size/load time)? ( SouthernElectric 16:56, 11 September 2007 (UTC))
Hmmm, the route map does not show Coulsdon North, closed 1983, which should, I think, appear on the Quarry Line, just parallel with Coulsdon South. Any objections if I try and fit it in? Ravenseft ( talk) 23:15, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Recent edits by this user on several pages seem to be inaccurate and have had to be reverted. Am I the only one wondering if this users knows enough about the region? Olana North ( talk) 11:56, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
A large chunk of this line now has overground services running along it, yet there is no mention of the east london line at all in this article. Is this because this article distinguishes the doubled track along that route? If so perhaps someone could make a note of that in the article? Or it the article just out of date.- J.Logan` t: 11:50, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
The London end shows three stations on the 'top' line of the diagram. Obviously the left one is Victoria and the right one is London Bridge. What is the middle one? -- SGBailey ( talk) 16:21, 25 March 2013 (UTC)

Stations on the map near London Bridge don’t seem right. South Bermondsey is not on the Brighton Main Line, but the map shows it is. Conversely, Spa Park and Southwark Park are on the Line en route to New Cross Gate. The changeover below South Bermondsey isn’t accurate either. It shows you can get straight to New Cross Gate, but that stretch of track doesn’t exist anymore. 193.63.77.122 ( talk) 08:01, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
I would like to do some work over the next few weeks to bring this article up to a decent "C" class standard. (I have done this recently for Hampton Court branch line, Shepperton branch line, Tattenham Corner line, Epsom Downs Branch, Ascot–Ash Vale line, Caterham line and North Downs Line.) Principally, I would like to expand history section, tighten up the remainder of the text and improve the referencing. Per WP:CITEVAR, would anyone object if I convert the reference format to use Template:sfn? Thanks and best wishes, Mertbiol ( talk) 20:23, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
