Talk:Liverpool Lime Street railway station

message: I thought that writers of articles were expected to use full sentences. There are some obvious problems, but I don't want to spoil the British English (if that is what accounts for some of the stylistic characteristics).
Thanks for the anonymous addition, but it seems to me that the article has full sentences except in the bulleted section.  RickK 05:42, 13 Nov 2003 (UTC)

message: I have added a very small rail template box, as I only have limited local knowledge on such matters. I do not intend to be a vandal - far from it - but given that there seems to be a standardisation problem with the UKrailwaystations category, I cannot see why such a device should not feature on every page. The current state of the UK Railway Station list is frustrating as so many of the entries are either missing or inadequate. I really want to help out in any way I can. doktorb 20:22, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

message: Would suggest creating new article for Lime Street Lower Level as it an entirely seperate station. Different operator, different location code, different services and different environment, (underground). If nobody disagree, will create in 7 days.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.13.82.135 (talk) 19:46, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I was just thinking since all the Tube stations with Mainline services have a separate underground station article, should we do this for Lime Street too? I've gathered more info for the Undergound over the last few months but I'm not sure it the page now looks messy or not. What do we think? ----MKY661 (talk) 12:35, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
replies: text:  Not all have a separate article, in fact that's the exception rather than the rule. Most (such as Blackfriars; Cannon Street; Liverpool Street; London Bridge; Marylebone; Moorgate; Paddington; and Victoria) have a single article for both main line and Underground. Separate articles are only provided in special circumstances: where one main line station is served by two underground stations (such as /Charing Cross tube station/Embankment tube station and /Euston tube station/Euston Square tube station); where one Underground station is shared by two main line stations (such as King's Cross St. Pancras tube station// and Waterloo tube station/Waterloo/); or where a walk along the streets is necessary (such as /Tower Hill). --Redrose64 (talk) 18:14, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah yes. I just saw some pf them weren't separate. --MKY661 (talk) 21:26, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Lower Level

message: 2005/06: 14.472 million but 2006/07: 6.377 million. On the face of it that's a huge reduction. I imagine that the criteria were changed, since I can't imagine that Lime St. lost over 50% of its custom in a year, but if so shouldn't that be mentioned? It looks bizarre with no explanation. 86.132.139.119 (talk) 16:45, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Passenger numbers 

message: this was due to all tickets being sold to Liverpool being credited to Lime Street Mainline, so Moorfields, Liverpool James Street, Liverpool Central & Lime Street Lower Level were misrepresented. This changed. Liverpool Central is probably more intensively used.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.148.228.70 (talk) 21:53, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: passenger number response

message: I recently visited this station and found there was a statue of Ken Dodd, not sure if this should be included. Zunraa (talk) 00:41, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: See if there's a writeup about it in the Liverpool Echo or similar - if so, then by all means mention it, giving the reference in the usual way. A photo would be nice too - this is not unprecedented, see this statue of a bear from Darkest Peru. Upload that to Wikimedia Commons - their upload page is here. --Redrose64 (talk) 11:06, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ken Dodd 

message: The article states that Lime Street is "one of 19 stations managed by Network Rail.", however most other station entries and the Network Rail page all claim there are only 18. I'm not sure which is correct, but clearly one isn't. AndyLandy (talk) 18:45, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: This doc, part of the current National Rail timetable, states "Network Rail is responsible for operating 18 managed stations" on page 41. The same page also lists 18 stations, and Liverpool Lime Street is one of the 18. --Redrose64 (talk) 20:41, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Managed by Network Rail 

message: I have just been reqading bits of  MALTS(Merseyside Area Land Use/Transportation Study: final report: report A to the Steering Committee) from 1969 in a couple of paras closing Lime STreet and opening a new station at Edge Hill is considered as partof the Mersey Rail plan I wrote it up here [A New Edge Hill http://peterirate.blogspot.com/2016/06/a-new-edge-hill.html] I didn't think to copy the para as a ref. --Kitchen Knife (talk) 20:11, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Closure

message: Routine conveyance of mail by train between Liverpool and Manchester started on 11th November 1830. Special coaches were introduced in or shortly after April 1831. Lime Street was not the first Liverpool station involved (this would have been Crown Street) and the BBC web page cited is incorrect. CastWider (talk) 22:03, 23 June 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  First conveyance of mail by railway 

message: These columns were on the opposite side of the road and associated with St George's Hall, not the station. Legend has it that they were surplus to the Hall's requirements. To be fair, the Echo article doesn't specify that they were associated with the station but that is the (incorrect) implication here and the sentence is better removed.
