Withdrawl of the London to Bradford service edit

Grand Union have withdrawn their application for the London to Bradford service. See http://www.rail-reg.gov.uk/server/show/nav.1258 I changed this article to say that Grand Union proposed a London to Bradford service that was later withdrawn. However, some users seem to think that the full details of a dead proposal, such as the route, should remain. Limited details of the proposed Chester to York and Newcastle to Preston services remain on the Grand Central article. This article should be consistent with it. 217.37.120.25 (talk) 15:43, 28 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

It was me who reverted the edit which deleted a lot of information. I do agree that the article needs re-writing, and you are correct to flag it as being out of date, but to out-right delete whole paragraphs isn't right. If I have time I'll try to re-write it, and thanks for the source. NRTurner (talk) 20:18, 28 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Grand Union and Grand Northern? edit

I am not sure what to do in this situation. It seems to be called one or the other with the former a lot more common, but the latter seems to be recent. A change? Another source that calls it Grand Northern are the West Yorkshire Passenger Transport Authority as seen here but it may be based on the ORR. I suppose just for now watch this space.
