Talk:Vale of Rheidol Railway

message: Source for the "by the time it was built, there was little lead mining to serve" bit: BBC Wales History Hunters programme; its website doesn't actually go into as much detail as the programme did, but there is a mention of it on http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/historyhunters/locations/pages/2_2_rheidol.shtml

thread_title:  Infobox Station 

message: 'Privatised' seems an odd description for a railway that was closed for 32 years before re-opening under private ownership. The term 'privatised' normally refers to actively operating facilities which are sold by a government, not those disused and dismantled for 30 years. 87.194.80.255 (talk) 21:07, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: It was active, with steam, under BR. Then it was sold into private hands. Andy Dingley (talk) 22:33, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you've mis-read the article if you think it was closed. As Andy states above, it was owned and operated by British Rail (a public company) from nationalisation in 1948 until 1989, when it was sold. During that time it was operated by steam - it was steam on the rest of the BR network that finished in 1968. The only part of the line to have closed was the branch to the harbour, though the route into Aberystwyth was diverted in the late 60's/early 70's. —  Tivedshambo  (t/c) 22:47, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

message: This article could do with attention to improve it perhaps with a view of getting it to Good Article status. It needs expanding and proper formatting etc and removal of speculation and casual irrelevant details that cannot be backed up by references. 
I work for the company so would rather not make the edits myself but would will gladly review.  Willsmith3  (Talk) 23:22, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article Update 

message: The original name of this station was Glanrafon however we now know it as Glanyrafon (this is what is on the station running in board) I don't know when the change was made. I'll ask!

replies: text: Looking at the latest Quail map, it seems you're right. I'll revert my change and move the station article.  An optimist on the run!  17:41, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Glanrafon / Glanyrafon

message: On a similar subject, I see the intermediate station articles all categorise them in :Category:Railway stations closed in 1988. Is this correct? I thought they were still in use.  An optimist on the run!  17:53, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

message: Llanbadarn request stop is listed in the list of stations but is not marked on the schematic. There is an unnamed red spot on the route map which I assume is Llanbadarn. --Roly (talk) 15:19, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added Llanbadarn to the schematic where I think it should be. I hope someone will correct it if I'm wrong. --Roly (talk) 16:13, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
