Talk:New South Wales Hunter railcar

message: The commonname for this type of rolling stock is Hunter railcar, the J class terminology is only an inhouse code that is not really used in the outside world. Unlike the other classes of NSW rolling stock named in the X set format, these do not carry target plates. The New South Wales Hunter railcar name is consistent with how other NSW TrainLink rolling stock articles are named, New South Wales Endeavour railcar, New South Wales XPT etc.
 
They are referred to as Hunters by original operator CityRail and successor Transport for NSW. Likewise secondary cites from the Australian Journey of Multi-Disciplinary Engineering (The Hunter Rail Car: A Versatile Design Solution for Regional Rail Transport), Railway Digest (Hunter Railcars delayed, New Hunter Railcars commence testing, Hunter Rail Cars on tour), the Rail Motor Society (Hunter Rail Cars) and Transit Australia (The Hunter Rail Cars) also refer to them as such.

Talk:Pennsylvania Railroad class K5

message: According to the Works list I have (compiled by Mr Fisher in late 1940´s), PRR Altoona Machine Shops ceased to built steam locomotives in 1904. Last locomotive built was Altoona Machine Shops or shortly AMS with Works number 2289 / 1904 PRR class B-4a Nr.1425. After closing the AMS the PRR concentrated its all own steam locomotive production to Juniata Works. Thus, PRR was built actually at Juniata Works with works number 4205 / 1929 but having works plate Altoona Works 4205 / 1929. This detail is added by hand writing to the Juniata Works list. The same for the Juniata Works numbers 4195 - 4215.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.114.205.238 (talk) 05:09, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm pretty sure this engine was called the E2c. SpaceCaptain 01:39, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I was going to request a page move to E2c, but this is actually an interesting question. Just based on this article's citations, Bezilla refers to the class as E2c, but Staufer refers to the class as E3c. Certainly E2c seems to be the more common name by which the class is referred to, but every reference I can find comes from a secondary, tertiary, etc. source. So I don't have satisfying proof as to whether Wikipedia is repeating Staufer's error, or if the rest of us have been repeating Bezilla's error. Modelincard (talk) 15:35, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: Pennsylvania Railroad class E3c →  – As previously noted, the current references for this article are in conflict, with Bezilla referring to the class as E2c and Staufer referring to the class as E3c. While not absolutely conclusive, I was able to find one work which addressed both names: In "Under Pennsy Wires" by Paul Carleton, it is stated on page 153 that:
Conversely, I am still not aware of any sources which address both classifications while reaching the conclusion that E3c is correct. Thus, I now believe that the balance of evidence tends to favor the classification of E2c as being correct. Modelincard (talk) 16:18, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Pennsylvania Railroad class T1

message: This article suffers from the usual confusion which appears when unknowledgeable people write about steam engines, whether locomotives, marine, or stationary engines.
In the case of a locomotive, there are 4 horsepower values - boiler horsepower, which is calculated from the boiler dimensions (grate area, heating surface, etc); cylinder horsepower, which is calculated from the cylinder dimensions (and must be smaller than the boiler horsepower for a successful locomotive - see the Triplex for an example of what happens when the boiler horsepower is smaller than the cylinder); indicated horsepower, which is calculated by measuring the actual pressure in the cylinder (thus accurately accounting for pressure loss in the valve, exhaust backpressure, etc; it is always smaller than cylinder horsepower); and drawbar horsepower, which represents the power available to move a train and is measured with a dynamometer car (thus accounting for the power absorbed in moving the locomotive itself; drawbar power is always about 20% less than indicated power).
I changed some "hp" to "ihp" where the text was clearly referring to indicated horsepower.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:589:300:CA70:0:0:0:B360 (talk) 22:14, 6 October 2022 (UTC)

Talk:2006 New York's 20th congressional district election

message: This article is NOT:
*A place to list things that John Sweeney did, including actions in Congress, which have not become campaign issues.  Those belong in the John E. Sweeney article.  (Those just added to this article, which I deleted, I will evaluate and add to his article as appropriate.)  And if/when they DO become campaign issues, then they should be mentioned BRIEFLY here.  Remember that this is a transitory page - after 2006, it's NOT the place that people will come (for example) to read that Sweeney had a 2001 auto accident. 
*A place to insert campaign text for Gillibrand. Because she has no article of her own, she DOES get more space/text here than does Sweeney, but that doesn't extend to things that aren't verifiable ("leader in women's rights" - is that from a newspaper or campaign literature?).  A reasonable description of what she has proposed is okay, but neutral language ("changes" rather than "reform" - who is against "reform"?) is required. I've deleted endorsements from the usual suspects, just as I will if someone puts in that Sweeney was endorsed (say) by George W. Bush. Those endorsements are NOT newsworthy per se - wikipedia isn't the place for laundry lists.

message: While the literal translation of specialistofficerare is specialist officer, it is not the correct translation. (You made the same error wrt Officershögskolan earlier.) 
In the sentence
"Firs cadre of 92 Army Specialist Officers graduated as Sergeants from the ground battle school at Kvarn. Those have received training to become squadleaders and will serve as instructors at traing centers around Sweden."
instead of Army Specialist officers it should say Specialistofficerare (non-commissioned officers)
the normal meaning of the english word specialist officer is more like a commissioned officer with special skills like doctor, lawyer etc
Also, a British Lance Corporal does not correspond to USMC lance corporal.

replies: text:  "Rail-Road" is in the original founding doccuments, so I'd say that was the original official name. "Railroad" became the standard word later in the 19th century, and no doubt that spelling became more common in the line's later years. I don't particularly object to the more modern spelling for the article, but certainly think the original spelling should be mentioned in this article and used in the sections refering to its early years. -- Infrogmation (talk) 12:19, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
