ch? edit
What is "ch", as in "4 mi 3 ch Stratford" etc? Please tell me it's not chains. 198.176.82.33 (talk) 13:57, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
- Correct. --TBM10 (talk) 20:45, 22 February 2019 (UTC)
- @TBM10: I'm not going to just wade in and change it myself, but we should be placing readers first. Chains may still be a unit of measurement within the railway industry, but they're not in common usage among the British public. You should change these distances to miles and decimal fractions, plus convert to kilometers using {{convert}}. 198.176.82.33 (talk) 14:21, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
County lines edit
Are they really necessary? Especially given the numerous times the route crosses the Berks/Bucks border? --TBM10 (talk) 18:37, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
- The London boundary is useful as an anchor for location; it also marks the boundary between controlling authorities (TfL being "London"), although "Berkshire" is inaccurate for that purpose. I agree the rest are over-the-top; they were added, I guess, for equality (as Essex gets a mention in the east). I'd be happy with just Home counties for the western one.
