Successful?[edit]

Removed the successful from "First Great Eastern was a successful railway company", heh. For their entire tenture this was my local railway and besides the obvious bias I'd disagree very, very strongly.

Stratford[edit]

The article states that all train services called at Stratford. This is not even remotely correct. Even leaving aside the numerous branch line services that were never, or not always, through services to London (e.g. Marks Tey-Sudbury; Witham-Braintree), many of the GEML services did not call at Stratford, although the number increased during the franchise. Even now (2015) some of these services still skip Stratford. 217.156.210.141 (talk) 11:47, 7 April 2015 (UTC) A former employee. P.S. I wonder if Jamorama has a different view of FGE now, after suffering One/NXEA for several years?[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:First Great Eastern logo.gif[edit]

Image:First Great Eastern logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 07:07, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
