No problem! I just noticed that information on a few pages was out of date, so I decided to rectify it, and no I am not part of that wikiproject. Class444SWRail ( talk) 19:42, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
Well, for me it’s because they’re the trains I’ve grown up with, whenever I’d go to London I’d always be on a class 444, and therefore I’ve got quite fond memories of them Class444SWRail ( talk) 05:01, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

We do not include known named services in service tables. If it's included in the service table, the one special service is not noted for the same redundancy reason (i.e. King's Cross to Aberdeen is noted as 3 trains per day instead of 4 as the extra 4th service is the Northern Lights service).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Chiltern Railways, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page West Midlands. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

You may not be aware, but on the railways of the United Kingdom the law requires there to be distance markers at intervals along one side of the track or the other, they show the official distance measured along the railway from some datum point. On the National Rail system they are at intervals of a quarter of a mile. They were surveyed some time ago, usually when a railway was ready for opening, and are generally not resurveyed when a route is altered or a station is closed - if this were necessary, a resurvey would be necessary almost every year. Official mileages are easily verified from well-researched publications such as
