Orphaned references in Parson Street railway station

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Parson Street railway station's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "nrfacilities":

  • From Bedminster railway station: "Bedminster (BMT)". Network Rail. Retrieved 5 May 2012.
  • From Nailsea and Backwell railway station: "Nailsea & Backwell (NLS)". Network Rail. No date. Retrieved 2012-04-01. {{cite web}}: Check date values in: |date= (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 14:15, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Platform number

[edit]

Hey, @Geof Sheppard. I noticed you reverted the platform count edit - wanted to open a discussion on it.

From what I see, most UK stations state the number of disused platforms - Esher railway station, Walton-on-Thames railway station, etc. The "one disused plaform" is also backed up by some sources:

Thoughts? Couruu (talk) 12:00, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There might be some variation on Wikipedia about whether to include disused platforms, but for the "average" reader, they most likely want to know how many platforms are used by passenger trains. National Rail certainly describe it as having just 2 platforms: Parson Street map
Parson Street had 4 tracks serving 2 physical platforms when it opened. One track has been removed (the down relief line) and one only serves the freight-only line to the Freightliner terminal and Portbury (the former up relief platform). This leaves two platforms in use. Geof Sheppard (talk) 16:14, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
