i would propose removing this page since all steam locomotives are listed on one of the FR, WHHR, WHR pages. "The only extra info was when Linda/Blanche got their tenders" Nigelbarry (talk) 16:25, 9 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I agree that this is a pointless page that doesn't add anything and should be removed to avoid needless duplication. Ed - Eheaps (talk) 08:24, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I would propose a repurpose to (Re)Builds linked to the FR/WHR/WHHR - and move these locomotives.

Mountaineer III

C2 (No 4)

Gowrie II

133

134

140

Lady Madcap

I think there is also ng15/120 (WHHR)

Is 120 still owned by a WHHR supporter? Nigelbarry (talk) 17:51, 24 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

New page name/purpose[edit]

First of all, please don't rename pages and then change the contents. This breaks all the links across the wiki. If you want to delete an old page then suggest it for deletion. If you want to make a new page, then make a new page.

Secondly, I don't think there's much point in the repurposed page either. Most of these locomotives are adequately described on other lists pages. The only ones which aren't have not yet been built, I would propose these be added to the bottom of the visiting locos pages in a "potential future visitors" category.

Rename/delete, you are right of course, my mistake. Where to keep the "potential" is the 6M$ question. I would say a single page with all the changing data might be easier to manage, but its not the only solution.Nigelbarry (talk) 18:08, 25 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
