Talk:List of V/Line railway stations

message: I don't know if the suburban stations which sit on regional routes should be listed. Prehaps a 'branches/continues from xxx suburban line' note and a link to that line's list? Putting suburban stations on the regional station list might confuse people. Hypernovean 07:54, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I would've appreciated waiting for me to be able to reply before doing this. I know it is a bit odd having suburban stations on these, but the problem is that none of the regional lines continue on from the suburban lines. For instance, it is a bit misleading to claim that the Geelong line continues on from the Werribee line - when it only stops at North Melbourne, Newport and Werribee, and indeed takes an alternate route for a good portion of the way. I can't think of a better way to show which stations trains actually stop at on that line. Ambivalenthysteria 12:11, 26 Mar 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I added the suburban stations back but noted them as such. Hypernovean 10:56, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)

thread_title: Suburban lines?

message: I reverted the removal of the (suburban station) tag from the Melbourne ones - not sure why you did this for the Geelong line, seeing as it's used for every other one. I'm also not sure about what was added about Breakwater station - a) is it called Breakwater or Geelong Racecourse, as I've seen both used?, b) is it actually still in operation - again, I've heard conflicting things, c) is it used at all apart from on Geelong Cup Day, and d) does it appear on VLine or any of the state transit websites?

replies: text: Though I've never seen it, I understand the Breakwater station was used recently for the Geelong Cup. Not sure what you mean about what I've removed? You've lost me there I'm afraid. -- Longhair | Talk 02:19, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: On this list, all the suburban stations (i.e. Newport and Werribee) are tagged with (suburban station) - I'm not sure why you removed them for the Geelong line only. Ambi 02:28, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh I get it now. It wasn't intentional. I cut and pasted from Geelong railway line, Victoria. -- Longhair | Talk 02:38, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Obviously, a large number of the Victorian lines are freight-only, so have no stations as such. Should a page such as List_of_regional_railway_lines_in_Victoria be created for things like that? Tanarri Fujitsu 09:09, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Freight-only lines 

message: Information updated as follows. Echuca line has been closed since 2004 with buses replacing trains. Leongatha and Mildura are planned to reopen so I have listed these lines + Echuca and their respective stations under a new section detailing closed lines that are planned to be reopened.

message: What was the reasoning for reverting all the images back to tiny thumbnails without providing any explanation? Somebody in the WWW (talk) 09:19, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I have a habit of making the lead photo 'big' about 300 / 250 px then the rest default sized thumbnails. [checks history] - your version had them big but each slightly different in size, I feel that was a bit all over the place. There isn't many full paragraphs of text in this article so putting all the images the same bigger size wont hurt. Page width is something to keep in mind - I'm at 1280 or thereabouts, 1024 is 'normal' these days and shouldn't have an issue with it. Wongm (talk) 09:59, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Image sizes

message: I'm not sure if someone wants to do this, and even if they do whether they want to do it on each system's pages and then this one, too, but can we have a section describing which tracks (outside the City Loop since I think it's assumed that every system shares it) V/Line (regional) and Metro Trains (suburban) share?  I think it's a fairly interesting if not even relevant fact.  Not being from the area, though, I have no idea what is shared. --Criticalthinker (talk) 18:09, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd like to be clear about something.  While this definitely interests me, my primary purpose about asking these questions is to make these pages better and to get locals more familiar with the issue to perhaps improve/clarify/expand/revise these pages.  I come in as an outsider to help these page editors see what an outsider might be confused about. --Criticalthinker (talk) 04:34, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

message: If it's ok with everyone, I'd like to format the stations into a table listing like in List of Melbourne railway stations? I find it annoying that there's no consistency between the two lists. Fauzi (talk) 19:36, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Excellent idea. Much more useful. While you're at it, you can get rid of the "proposed for reopening" ones, which are just out-of-date OR. Triptothecottage (talk) 21:58, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  I'll start doing it this week but seeing that it'll get messy for a bit, I might start off in a new section below the regional groupings first and see which looks better. Then I'll go through the out of date stations. Fauzi (talk) 06:59, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  I've done it now :) It's here if anyone has any issues before I put it into the article: User:Takerlamar/List of regional railway stations in Victoria. Takerlamar (talk) 02:44, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The table with all the lines mashed together looks bloody awful in my book and List of Melbourne railway stations is not the better for that having gotten through. I wouldn't mind the current format of this article (stations separated by line and in geographical order on said lines) adapted to tables with the inclusion of more information but the Melbourne one just looks like a mess.

replies: text: List of regional railway stations in Victoria →  – This article currently includes railway stations within Melbourne as well as regional stations, such as Sunbury station, Craigieburn station and Deer Park station. Moving this article would be in line with List of NSW TrainLink railway stations and List of Transwa railway stations. This move would be accompanied by a move of List of railway stations in Melbourne to List of Metro Trains Melbourne railway stations. Steelkamp (talk) 04:00, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
