Hello. User:ScottDavis - you mentioned "guesstimating" the coords for the former Stockade station. Perhaps this link Map of Adelaide 1913 (click to zoom) will help. JabberJawJAPAN talk
Does anyone have access to the CatchPoint journal of May 2007? ScottDavis has suggested that the State Library or the National Railway Museum may have it. If you, reading this sentence, have access to it, please take a moment to verify this addition: Special:Diff/651881146.
The article currently relies on the integrity of an internet forum post at busaustralia.com, which is not a reliable source. Hoping that someone may be able to fix the issue, I'll wait a week before removing the link.

To whom it may concern,
thank you very much for providing this service.
I'm a Wikipedia editor, currently trying to verify a citation in the article "Northfield railway line". Back in 2015, someone has cited a reliable journal, but they had no direct access to the journal article. Instead, they based their contribution to Wikipedia on an internet forum message that contains a manually typed copy of the journal article. At least it allegedly does.
We are not allowed to rely on user-generated content to create articles at Wikipedia. Citations must come from a reliable source.
Do you have access to the "CatchPoint" journal, issue May 2007, which contains an article named "A Brief History of the Dry Creek to Stockade Railway"?
If so, you could do Wikipedia a huge favor by verifying the following addition:
/info/en/?search=Special:Diff/651881146
You may like to verify the citation directly and publicly at:
/info/en/?search=Talk:Northfield_railway_line#Verification_required
To respond, no account is required. There is a "New section" link at the top of the page, and you can use it to add a comment. If you leave the "Subject/headline" field empty, the comment will be appended to the last section.
This may be an unusual yet interesting request. Of course, sending me a mail or e-mail with your verification is also possible, and I'll happily add it to the Wikipedia talk page for you.
Thank you very much in advance, for your time and work. Best regardsTobias Frei (ToBeFree @ Wikipedia)
"is indeed contained in Catchpoint, May 2007", and that it
"can be found on pp 27-29.". Sadly, this response does not explicitly verify the integrity of the quote; it just confirms that the journal article exists. I am unsure whether to ask for further confirmation; I don't want to carelessly take advantage of other people's time. Ideally, I'd live in Australia and have the time to verify this myself. Sadly, neither currently applies.
