Balmossie edit

Balmossie Halt is not closed, contrary to what the diagram indicates, though it is now simply called Balmossie. But I have no idea how to edit the diagram! WillNL (talk) 19:08, 3 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Resolved - removed as the station did not exist in the days of the Dundee and Arbroath Railway (or for that matter during the existence of the CR and NBR). --Stewart (talk) 20:29, 3 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
Thanks -- that seems like the best thing to do. In the end, I went and learned how to edit the template anyway, because Broughty Ferry station was also shown as closed. WillNL (talk) 17:16, 4 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Original track gauge edit

Original track gauge is given as 5ft 6in. This is variously displayed as 1676mm and 1384mm. I suspect that 1384mm is correct and that the imperial gauge was 4ft 6.5in, the same as the Dundee and Newtyle Railway. A lot of early railways in Scotland used the Scotch gauge of 4ft 6in so this seems more likely. Biscuittin (talk) 17:08, 12 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

No, it was 5ft 6in, see 4 ft 6 in gauge railway. I have changed 1384mm to 1676mm. Biscuittin (talk) 18:29, 12 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
