Staines High Street Station[edit]

This is actually a "re-opening" of an old station, rather than a "new" station. There used to be a Staines High Street station, but it was closed in 1916. There is little left of the old station due to redevelopment, but this "new" station will be built on the site of where the old station used to be.

Egham[edit]

I strongly suspect this section was written by an Egham resident with an agenda, as it has a one-sided feel without any references. Psym (talk) 23:31, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

yes it is but that because i don't know how to add referrences yet. most of it is straight from the consultation doc ref 2 in the existing stub and the airtrack forum website also already cited, only it is pretty difficult to figure out how to put them in —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moli egham (talk • contribs) 23:26, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It really sounds like a bit of a rant to me! Not sure if references will do the trick to convince me its neutral.134.219.158.221 (talk) 10:34, 18 November 2008 (UTC) . It may be a rant, but it is all factually correct. OK, i'll go back and look again and see if that is "all" or "almost all" moli but i still don't know how to sign this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moli egham (talk • contribs) 23:12, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed some of the speculatory language in the Egham section (i.e. reference to "perfunctory" consultation), as well as correcting some of the misleading (and even factually incorrect text). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phil style (talk • contribs) 14:13, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Perfunctory" means a consultation document which is not sent out to the affected parties in the affected area, by someone who doesn't advertise the "consultation" in the local papers in the affected towns, who finally (after dozens, perhaps hundreds of calls) arranges an "exhibition" at less than a week's notice, advertised with a tiny listin less then 1 column x 2 inches in the back pages of one local paper, provides displays which leave out the name of the town, provide statistics verbally but decline to provide them on paper or electronically.... Can I have my word back please? meher —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.204.193.18 (talk) 18:54, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As this has been an issue since 2008, I have gone ahead and edited down the text of this section to bring it more in line with Wikipedia style. Please be aware of the WP:SOAPBOX and WP:NPOV policies in future. This is not a campaigning website but you can post campaign material on blogs and other websites. The section still needs to be shortened as it still feels a bit "soapboxy" but it's not as blatant as it was before.14:59, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Abandonment[edit]

Need to identify the most reliable of this lot:

Feltham?[edit]

Looking at the map, it looks like it would be a very simple engineering project to build a 2 mile railway line spur from Feltham station to Terminal 4 station, along Bedford Road and Great S W Road. A bit of tunnelling and a lot of soundproofing would surely keep local residents happy, especially if they get a nice fast service from Feltham to Clapham Junction and Waterloo in return. Has this ever been proposed? -Roberthall7 (talk) 11:03, 1 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
