Inland Line → Inland Railway – Consistency with the rest of the article. Additionally, on its website Inlandsbanan itself translates its name into English as "the inland railway". Picapica (talk) 01:08, 24 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Strong oppose Inland Railway is an article, and it's about a different subject. Overwriting and deleting the other subject is a bad idea. 70.24.248.23 (talk) 04:57, 24 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
Note: There is absolutely no proposal to overwrite or delete the existing Inland Railway article, and I am sure that no adminstrator would do that! But to make that quite clear, I will withdraw my original proposal and replace it with a move to Inland Railway (Sweden): -- Picapica (talk) 17:48, 24 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

I hate to point this out, but the official English name of the railway line is 'Inland Line', according to the Swedish Transport Administration (see page 3), who owns the line. This also created an internal consistency with all other Swedish railway line namings on Wikipedia. The web site referred to above is merely the site of a company which runs trains on the line.

Indeed, and it introduced a needless "(Sweden)" disambiguation suffix where previously none was required. Based on the reading of outcome of the above (there was no consensus for the move) and the downsides of having moved it and the advantages of the shorter, more concise name it can probably be restored to its previous name without concern. —Sladen (talk) 12:19, 26 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
