# Talk:Cranleigh line

"Although Yolland had sanctioned the opening of the line, he had refused the opening of Rudgwick station intermediately, because it was on a 1 in 80 gradient; he required the gradient to be eased to no steeper than 1 in 130 for safety reasons; this was done, not without some difficulty, and Rudgwick station opened in November 1864." If the line itself didn't open till 1865, surely 1864 can't be the right year for the opening of Rudgwick station? JH (talk page) 09:37, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

According to Butt (1995), the stations on the line all opened on 2 October 1865 except Rudgwick, where November 1856 is shown - this must be a typo for November 1865. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 17:54, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll correct it accordingly. JH (talk page) 08:33, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

I would like to do some work on this article over the next few weeks. Principally, I would like to expand coverage of the history post-1900, tighten up the remainder of the text and improve the referencing. I have done this in the past few months for the Redhill–Tonbridge line and Oxted line articles, both recently promoted to Good Article status. Per WP:CITEVAR, would anyone object if I convert the references to use template:sfn?
