Talk:Wellington railway station

Article name edit

Some of us Wikipedians pass through that station 10 times in the average week. In other countries it might be called a Train Station, but there's no doubt about the name carved in stone on the front of this building.

Actually every other nation (AFAIK) calls them "x railway station" (where x is the name of town), rather than using "train station" Pickle 15:18, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Article structure edit

The article is a bit of a mess, some sections repeat the same information and others don't appear to directly relate to their titles. Having a section called "Wellington railway station" within Wellington railway station as an article is just odd, and not inline with MOS:SECTIONSTYLE. I propose restructuring the article along these lines:

  • History
    • Development
    • Design
    • Construction
    • World War I Roll of Honour
    • Filming location
    • Airspace development
    • Head Office and occupants
  • Wellington railway yard (this should eventually have its own article)
  • Services
    • History
    • Rail
    • Bus
  • See also
  • References
    • Citations
    • Bibliography

As I get time I will restructure the article unless there are any objections --LJ Holden 00:29, 21 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
