Oxford to B. Town should be a terminus not going to radley, i want to edit it but dont know how 82.24.175.199 16:16, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
I have made the update Mark999 18:52, 22 November 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mark999 ( talk • contribs)
I'm confused because on the cotswold line page it says: The Cotswold Line is an 86.5 mile long railway line running from Oxford to Worcester, so how can this have stations either side of Oxford? -- 129.67.19.252 ( talk) 23:13, 16 January 2008 (UTC)
I believe some of information under 'Further expansion' has been overtaken by the recent proposal jointly by Oxford City, Oxfordshire and Network Rail for a redeveloped Oxford station. This in turn may die through lack of funding. So should the previous proposal, involving a new platform south of Botley Road, go into 'history' or just be deleted?
Second question: there has been discussion about reopening the Cowley branch for passenger service - with a service to Oxford station. Should this be mentioned under 'Further expansion'? New services' or ??? Cantab72 ( talk) 18:02, 28 January 2016 (UTC)
re change to double tracking: the working railway only runs to Oxford Parkway so far. The section to the north and south of Wolvercot Tunnel is affected by the noise abatement issues which have to be agreed with Oxford City Council, I believe. The date of 2019 for East West Rail is optimistic given Network Rail's latest CP5 proposals but changing this should wait until there is a clearer statement from Network Rail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cantab72 ( talk • contribs) 18:51, 29 January 2016 (UTC)
Under the section 'History' there is a comment 'citation needed' after the reference to three closed railway lines which brought passengers to Oxford. As all three of these have Wikipedia articles of their own, I am unclear why the 'citation needed' has been added. Is it being suggested that it is uncertain that passengers from these railways might have got off at Oxford? Cantab72 ( talk) 18:12, 29 January 2016 (UTC)

No mention of this route? Is it new, or temporary? In any case, it looked pretty real earlier ;) Muffled Pocketed 17:44, 19 October 2016 (UTC)
Would anyone object if move this list to the end of the article? WP:think of the reader on mobile who IMO is unlikely to read past it. -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 19:31, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
The section needs updating to take account of the current planning enquiry. And the earlier plans that disappeared up a siding somewhere could do with being edited down, but it needs someone more familiar with the station than I am to do it. -- John Maynard Friedman ( talk) 19:31, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
