Talk:London and North Western Railway

message: I notice what I perceive to be a combination of inconsistency and omission: the London and North Western Railway article describes the LNWR's formation in 1846, but makes no mention of its subsequent expansion, for example by leasing the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway in 1859 and taking it over in 1879.
The History of rail transport in Great Britain article implies that LNWR served Scotland from 1846 through "an amalgamation of companies working from Euston to Scotland". The LNW Railway Society website, however, talks about serving Scotland through cooperation with the Calledonian Railway.
I am no expert, and don't currently have time to research this, but it would appear that at least one, and possibly both, of the LNWR and History of rail transport in Great Britain articles may be misleading. StephenDawson 16:34, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

message: The Bolton & Leigh Railway was already a part of the Grand Junction Railway when the LNWR was formed.  If the B&L is included anong the "Predecessors" of the LNWR, then the Liverpool & Manchester Rly, the Leigh & Kenyon Junction Rly, the Crewe & Chester Rly etc etc would have to be included. Which seems pointless to me.Hyjack7 (talk) 4 June 2015   — Preceding undated comment added 15:51, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
