  Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to The Dyke railway station, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 08:27, 29 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hello there, I'm keen to add the name of the retired guard to this article. I thought I had added a legitimate citation, but it seems not. It is a copy of the 1901 census that shows the man, that he's living in a railway carriage at the Dyke and that he is the proprietor. Can I upload the image for your consideration? Any assistance so I can have this information added would be gratefully received.
