SECR R1 Class
This will need care, because the redlink SECR R1 Class is used for two unrelated classes, one being Kirtley's development of his own LCDR "R" class 0-6-0T, the other being Wainwright's rebuild of the Stirling "R" class 4-4-0. --Redrose64 (talk) 17:57, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Cubitt on the London, Chatham and Dover
In the section Locomotives of the Southern Railway, William Cubitt is named. This is in accordance with However, I don't think that this can be right. A thorough check of does not turn up any instances of William Cubitt; the name Cubitt does occur several times (for example, on pages 8, 19, 20, and 33) but I can find only one place where this is qualified with a first name: on page 12, Joseph Cubitt is named in connection with the planning of Longhedge Works. Other books also name Joseph Cubitt in connection with the LCDR, for instance a book which lists William Cubitt, but without mentioning the LCDR; and most importantly, in there is the sentence "At first Joseph Cubitt acted as locomotive superintendent, and he in turn called in Crampton." He is again named on p. 75. -- Red rose64 (talk) 16:10, 5 November 2016 (UTC)
