Talk:Epping tube station

Northernmost station?
It's a close call but I would say that Chesham is slightly further north than Epping. --Jcmo 09:52, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Chesham is further north
When I read "northernmost" I looked it up even before I read the above comment the North coordinates for the stations are (Epping 51°41'38 N) - (Chesham 51°42'18) - even the coordinates given in the articles show Chesham is further north

or simply Chesham is about 1 km further north

Ongar Branch
I don't see the need to dwell on the Ongar branch line, yes it should be noted that services used to continue on to Ongar, but stating the current owners of the Ongar line is only free advertising and adds nothing to the subject 'Epping Station'.(86.21.90.165 (talk) 18:15, 16 May 2008 (UTC))

There should be some dwelling on the Ongar branch as many residents saw it as a political move to remove it from the tube network rather than as a saving. Many people commute to Epping from North Weald & Ongar and would like to see the line re-opened, particularly given the fierce opposition against expanding the Epping car park.

North Weald next (disused) station
No mention of the next station being North Weald, albeit disused —Preceding unsigned comment added by AsparagusTips (talk • contribs) 18:08, 5 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I personally think this is covered in the 'History'. (Spymo (talk) 19:36, 25 October 2008 (UTC))

Ongar branch
I remember this artical used to contain a route box at the end with the closed branch to Ongar. Where an intermediate station has become a terminus, the articals usually have this to denote the former continued route. The question is, who deleted it from this artical, and why? Afterall, the precident is for the opposite to occur. OutrageousBenedict (talk) 02:49, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No need to repeat a heading! I'm not too sure what you mean, but there is a 'Disused Railways' box, which clearly shows the route before 1994. Plus the 'History' section covers it too!(Spymo (talk) 19:07, 8 May 2009 (UTC))

It was I who put the disused railways box (back) in; just the other day ;) OutrageousBenedict (talk) 21:24, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

Northernmost station...again
Just took a look at this and what the artical says and references. This artical says that Epping is further north and gives two references. One is for a (very poor) geographic map that doesn't even go out as far as Epping or Chesham (!!) and the other is for site which is worded in such a way as its a fair interpretation that its just pointing out the four corners of the underground. I've looked at various proper geographic maps drawn by LT and they all show Chesham as being slightly further north. Therefore I'm going to delete this bullet point. Sorry!

Roundel at Epping Station
Could someone please explain why the picture of the Epping station roundel has been nominated for 'speedy deletion'? It has been on the article for sometime without any problems, what's changed?(Spymo (talk) 19:11, 8 May 2009 (UTC))

Abandoned Future Proposal
Crossrail 2 is a proposed railway that runs north to south, whereas Crossrail is a railway under construction that will run east to west and is being named the Elizabeth line. AsparagusTips (talk) 08:46, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
