This article is new enough and long enough. The hook is appropriately sourced and the image is in the public domain. I detected no policy issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:55, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
The source cited for the hook information (footnote 1) only calls it a "park-and-ride station", not an "infill station". Yoninah (talk) 19:39, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
- I would think this falls under WP:BLUE? They were new stations built on existing lines. I don't know when infill station became a term of art; it may not have been coined at the time. I have no objection to the hook being changed and it makes no functional difference. The fact that both stations are on existing lines is in the cited source.

- Reinstating my tick as I have substituted "park and ride" (used in both article and source) for "infill" in the hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:11, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
