Wikivoyage talk:Rail travel Expedition

Trainspotting Wiki Voyagers wanted.
I want to make sure every railway has a guide and/or itinerary. I am a huge fan of railway travel, and wish to work for network rail in the next few years. Normsdale (talk) 12:37, 9 April 2013 (UTC)


 * That sounds really good! I'm a fan of railways, but I can't claim to be an expert! Perhaps we could create a 'Railways' or 'British Railways' expedition where we could organise these articles and perhaps take some existing ones (eg Rail travel in the United Kingdom) under our wing? --Nick (talk) 15:56, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm adding all the railways I remember going on from my childhood and my adulthood (I'm almost 27) but It looks like even I need to see more railways, as this is a "freight train" of an undertaking. Normsdale (talk) 16:51, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
 * One caveat I'd suggest - stub articles for things like trains will generally be deleted or redirected if they aren't developed (see What is an article), so I'd suggest either starting out by first adding the rail information to Rail travel in the United Kingdom or trying to develop a handful of rail lines into more complete articles before plunging forward and creating stubs for a lot of different rail lines. -- Ryan &bull; (talk) &bull; 18:27, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not a trainspotter or enthusiast, but I do enjoy riding Metro trains/trams. A project I have for Victoria (state) is to create articles for all of the towns that have a train station, then use the route template (often used for motorways) to lay out the railway line with the next and previous stations.

 * I will try getting West Somerset Railway up to star status or destination of the month if I can. I know the route very well as it was my mothers, cousins and my local "branch line" of the Great Western Railway. Normsdale (talk) 11:48, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
 * African Wikivoyagers are wanted to help flesh out Rail travel in Africa. Normsdale (talk) 22:56, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I also started a rail travel expedition to get this train moving. Normsdale (talk) 23:10, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
