Talk:Shore Line East

message: Would somebody like to update Shore Line East's route map to include West Haven?  Also, I am not sure about West Haven's milepost.  I invite anybody to add that to the article.Raryel (talk) 17:08, 18 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: August 2013 update

message: The line station sequence in the infobox has a link to Connecticut River. This is misleading because all of the other station links actually link to the articles on the station, e.g., New Haven RR station, New London RR station. Unfortunately, there is no way to edit the box, so as to remove the link that presently links to the Connecticut River, instead of to an article on the Connecticut River station.Dogru144 (talk) 23:52, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: That's intentional. The Connecticut River is a geographic feature; there hasn't been a "Connecticut River" station since... at least the 60s. (It was located on Ferry Road in Old Saybrook, but was long gone before SLE came into existence.) Normally RDTs like this do not include geographic features; however, the two bridges are relevant as they limit the ability to increase service levels.

thread_title: Incorrect link in info box map

message: This is a Connecticut Dept of Transportation operation. Yet, there is at least one photograph with a train being pulled by an Amtrak locomotive. This is confusing. Aren't Amtrak engines supposed to pull Amtrak trains?Dogru144 (talk) 23:52, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: This is explained in the "Rolling Stock" section. ConnDOT bought 8 P40DC Genesis locomotives from Amtrak; they are still in Amtrak paint but the Amtrak logo has been painted over. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 00:55, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Correct. However as of 2021, they will no longer have the Amtrak scheme, instead they will now wear the CTrail scheme already used on the rebuilt GP40-3Hs and BL20GHMs (the latter doesn't operate on CTrail but is painted in the scheme regardless, minus the text).--Davidng913 (talk) 18:35, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

message: Can someone please update the map to include the future stations of Mystic and Westerly--JJBers (talk) 13:32, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: The extension to Mystic and Westerly is currently an unfunded proposal, certainly behind at least three other projects (Last burst of funding for the Hartford Line, Hartford-Waterbury, CT River Bridge) in the funding queue in the state. It has also not entered any kind of environmental review phase. AS such, it would be drastically premature to put it on the KML map. Just because we railfans want something to happen, doesn't mean it actually will. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 16:05, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Updating Map

message: This could apply to the whole article, but I'm wondering if it should be made clearer that this is a class of service (local), complementing numerous limited-stop intercity trains on the same route? Mackensen (talk) 17:37, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Previous service 

message: Many railroad articles that include Roster's have a current in-service roster, and a past (retired units) roster. Just wondering if that would be a good idea here or not. Interstate Railfan (talk) 15:16, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: This seems like a good idea - could you reference some articles that have these rosters? TheKenster (talk) 20:49, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
