I am a bit baffled having searched through Wikipedia why the name change is required. The existing title differentiates between train stations and bus stations. Not a strong oppose - but remain to be convinced that this change is required. Stewart 23:58, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Its really because of Merkland Street. If this is too minor, feel free to remove. Simply south 00:05, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd have to agree that it doesn't really need a name change. Surely Merkland Street could still be defined as a railway station, albeit an underground one? Suppose it comes down to pedantics really. If there is a name change I think just 'stations' would be far too vague as could mean half a dozen different things. --Dreamer84 12:48, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going by stations because, well i suppose mainly, of interchanges e.g. Partick station (National Rail and Glasgow Subway), Finsbury Park station (National Rail and London Underground), Newcastle Central station (National Rail and Tyne & Wear Metro).
