About removal of Template UK-steam-loco-stub edit

Removed this template as while perhaps technically correctly the MGWR was in the UK prior to circa 1922 and during the lifetime of this calls it is now in the Republic of Ireland. I'm not sure there is really a good stub for the Republic of Ireland. One could I suppose use Steam-loco-stub ... but I've just added some content so it's just about a tad over stub. In many ways I'm simply targeting getting rid of all redlinks for for all MGWR classes in the Ireland Steam Locomotives template and while I love to get above a stub it can be hard for some small early MGWR Classes prior to the Atock era where I only have one reference to hand.Djm-leighpark (talk) 21:34, 31 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Locomotive names concern edit

I'm a little concerned three of the locomotive names clash with those of MGWR Class 5 and the were around at the same period. I checked my source and I'm right against that but I've got a feeling the names the last three locomotives may be incorrect. There was also an error on the introduction date of the first loco 1885 instead of 1855 but this cannot be anything other than a typo on the source part.Djm-leighpark (talk) 22:38, 31 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
