Subway-surface lines[edit]
Hey, I love this template and thanks for adding it! But surely the subway-surface lines belong on here as well? I'd add them, but I'm not sure what "division" they're in. --Jfruh 13:05, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
SEPTA R4[edit]
This template deals with the SEPTA Regional Rail lines in their present form. The R4 line was proposed as a local service from Bryn Mawr but never implemented. That's why the R4 should not be in the template. Pilatus 13:46, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
- Actually the history is much more complicated - SEPTA Regional Rail describes it in detail. There's no reason to restrict the template to the present form. --SPUI (talk) 07:55, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
- We don't have defunct lines (such as the trackless trolleys) in the template, so there is no reason to have lines that never existed in the template. Pilatus 00:42, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- If someone gets around to write about the R4 the link can go back in. Pilatus 23:58, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- Removed the R4 link. If someone writes about the proposed R4 service (if I remember correctly, it was a Bryn Mawr-Fox Chase local) then the link should be added back. Izzycat 22:08, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
Girard St.?[edit]
Should the Girard_Street_line be on this template? --Jfruh 06:29, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
- Probley, have to figure out how i am going to work it in. --Boothy443 | trácht ar 07:24, 8 December 2005 (UTC)
Fern Rock, anyone?[edit]
So why isn't Fern Rock Transportation Center included in this template? And about the R4, I found a message board containing some useful info in case any body's interested. ----DanTD (talk) 03:07, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
Revising & updating[edit]
I've been unable to find any other templates that use the same format as this one, where active lines & route are completely separated from the inactive ones, rather than in appropriate subsections. Also, there's quite a number of relevant links that were omitted. AlgaeGraphix (talk) 21:04, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
- Well, {{Amtrak routes}} puts all the former services in one place, regardless of geography (the relevant factor when dividing up those services). It's true that {{Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority}} groups current and former services together (within modal type). Mackensen (talk) 22:35, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
Distinction between City Bus Routes and Former Trolley Routes[edit]
Just so theres a marker between the two, I would like to suggest that any cuts past 1970 be put in 'Former Trolley' and anything before, including the 1955 cuts, be put in 'City Bus' Jspace727 (talk) 17:12, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
