Copyvios

Large chunks of this article are blatantly cut-and-pasted from this website. As this does appear to be a reasonable article otherwise, does anyone want to have a stab at cleaning this up? — iridescent 20:50, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just paraphrase the stuff. It's better than removal. Winnifred-Ian-Leonard-Harry-Ellen-Lucy-Marilyn-Ingrid-Nora-Amanda Walter-Ira-Lauren-Lalla (talk) 21:38, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm reluctant to do it myself as I know virtually nothing about US rail terminology which is very different to UK usages, and I suspect any cleanup of mine would result in a transatlantic mess. I've posted a request at WT:TWP which will (hopefully) prompt someone else to clear it up. — iridescent 21:52, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know this was brought up 13 years ago, but I rewrote the entire article and removed the copy and pasted text. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 20:59, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
