Support - currently sounds overly convoluted, "London Victoria" sounds better, is used and i can't get away with calling it just "Victoria"! - Pickle 16:00, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

message: For some reason i recall some one asking about platform 8 being in southern of southeastern usage. I got a southeastern train from 8 (its on its own on the southeastern side) on Friday. I also have a feeling this data was relevant;

Platform 3 - 8 Cars 
Platform 4 - 8 Cars 
Platform 5 - 12 Cars (10 Car Networker) 
Platform 6 - 12 Cars (10 Car Networker) 
Platform 7 - 12 Cars 
Platform 8 - 8 Cars 
Platform 9 - 12 Cars 
Platform 10 - 12 Cars 
Platform 11 - 12 Cars 
Platform 12 - 12 Cars 
Platform 13 - 12 Cars - Gatwick Express 
Platform 14 - 12 Cars - Gatwick Express 
Platform 15 - 12 Cars 
Platform 16 - 12 Cars 
Platform 17 - 12 Cars

replies: text: Probably just a couple of short sentences indicating above would be sufficient - e.g., "All the platforms on the Brighton side take trains up to 12 cars in length. On the Chantham side, the max. train lengths vary from 8 to 14. What do you think? A bit iffy 11:33, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Not sure how to incorporate it really. Platform 2 is very unusually long, IIRC the VSOE uses it for its runs to Folkestone Harbour. Really did it as i had the source open, ands its therefore here, typed up, for when I get around to using it! Pickle 13:44, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

message: The article states that it was a man, David Corner, that was killed. However, I see to recall it was a woman that died. Can anyone throw some light on this? A bit iffy 11:33, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm sorry to rush so precipitately into a reply when you've only been waiting five and a half years. The source given, http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/sutton/chron/1991.html, looks quite sound and appears to be run by an academic institution. I've looked online a bit and everywhere that the gender is specified, it's a man. Really if we need to shed any more light on this, surely it needs to be your recollection - and the evidence for it - that does the shedding! :) But I am sorry that you got ignored for so long ... with best wishes DBaK (talk) 12:18, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh yes, I remember asking this. I'd recalled I'd heard on a radio report at the time that it was a woman, so they must have simply got it wrong. Cheers!--A bit iffy (talk) 12:40, 13 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: You're very welcome. So glad I jumped in hastily on this one! :) Best wishes DBaK (talk) 13:03, 13 May 2012 (UTC)

message: With regret, I undid this edit which added an image of a German-language email concerning a Victoria station sign at Hamburg-Harburg station. With the best will in the world I cannot see how it enhances the article; I feel it's inappropriate in a couple of ways, at least, but would be happy to discuss it here. If there's a place for this it might be better at the Harburg article but even there I wouldn't feel that this email image is itself the thing we'd want to display. Sorry, no unkindness intended here. Best wishes to all, DBaK (talk) 16:27, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Not quite sure how cultural an Ernest Bevin quote would be, but one often runs across his remark, as Foreign Secretary, that his foreign policy was to be able "to take a ticket at Victoria station and go anywhere I damn' well please!". There's a citation here, and although Boris Johnson used to be editor of the source, I understand it is nonetheless not regarded as unreliable. Tim riley talk  15:05, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

message: Firstly, I think the DLR "future" is bit too much WP:CRYSTAL - plans have been suggested, but not seriously for a number of years. Snip, modify or keep?
Secondly, the photo of the tube station portrays an entrance that no longer exists! Can someone change it to a more appropriate picture? 
Cheers, Turini2 (talk) 21:44, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's reliably sourced, keep it. It passed a GA review, so it can't be that bad. I don't think there are any up-to-date pictures of the tube entrance, and I don't regularly travel via Victoria anymore to be in easy access for a photo.

message: The Southeastern section was last revised in December 2021 but now needs an update to bring it line with the May 2022 timetable change.I have looked over the timetables on the Southeastern Web page and have come up with a TPH list. Please can someone kindly take some time out of their leisure to review the timetables and make sure the following is correct? :) 
* 1 tph to Dover Priory
* 2 tph to Ramsgate (one is routed via Chatham, the other via Ashford)
* 1 tph to Gillingham via Chatham 
* 2 tph to Dartford via Bexleyheath 
* 1 tph to Bromley South
* 1 tph to Orpington (all stations)
It may be incorrect :) But If it is, feel free to edit it. I have decided to post here before I change it in the main page just in case it had any mistakes. (Unsigned comment by User:AvidWriter123, 15:54 UTC, 30 August 2022)
