OK, not to many pages affected. Seems OK, but:

{{rail line\|previous=\[\[[^\|]+\|([^\]]+)\]\]\|route=([^\\||[lL]ine])[lL]ine]]\|next=\[\[[^\|]+\|([^\]]+)\]\]\|col=FF2400}}
    {{NJT line|previous=[[$1]]|line=$2|next=[[$3]]}} 

It seems like the "|" are not escaped, I know that in pearle/js regexps "|" means OR, like /hello|goodbye/ would match either.Voice-of-All 16:50, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
