Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway[edit]

I believe that this article includes a comprehensive history of the English narrow gauge railway, and is very informative, giving the reader information on both the line itself and the locomotives which work upon it. It differs from your bog-standard article on British heritage railways, and includes images, both of the present and the past on the railway. The history does not go over the top, and is complete from the railway's opening to present day. --Skarloey 19:17, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Object No references, four red links in the lead, list-heavy (given the shortness of the actual prose, I wonder how comprehensive the article is). Sandy 19:26, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object Per SandyGeorgia. This could become a FA candidate one day, but needs more work first. Some problems: the complete lack of sources. Multiple redlinks throughout article. "The line" section should be reduced just to the major stations and should also include basic information about each station. The "History" section should be split into separate sections, or into subsections. Needs more information (preferably including a photo) of the original 3 ft (914 mm) gauge line. Needs more information about the Bassett Lowke-era line and the relationship to the minimum gauge railways movement. Photo captions are too long. Gwernol 19:43, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
