"After opening the District service from New Cross four trains an hour ran alternately to Hammersmith or Putney"
This is grammatically or syntactically incorrect. ("Four trains an hour ran alternately to Hammersmith or Putney after opening the District service from New Cross" makes it clear that it is wrongly worded.)
Perhaps the writer means:
"After the opening of the District service from New Cross, four trains an hour ran alternately to Hammersmith or Putney"
Or
"After opening [sc: being opened], the District service from New Cross comprised four trains an hour run alternately to Hammersmith or Putney"
This is still tricky as the service couldn't run before the opening. 82.45.172.71 (talk) 12:32, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

"In the 1920s the off-peak weekday service was a train every ten minutes from Wimbledon and Ealing and every fifteen minutes from Richmond" To where? 82.45.172.71 (talk) 15:51, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

"widening the railway to East Ham was considered essential. Four tracks were laid and two electrified as far as Barking".
Four tracks were laid? The route is only four tracks today. Surely two additional tracks were laid and there were two pre-existing tracks? 82.45.172.71 (talk) 11:05, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
