Talk:New South Wales S set

Organisation of CityRail rollingstock articles
Shouldn't there be a common summary article about CityRail sets, and all existing pages named in a standard fashion e.g. by their letter codes or names e.g. V-Set (CityRail) (or DDIU (CityRail)), T-Set (CityRail) (or Tangara (CityRail), Endeavour (CityRail) etc? The current array is pretty messy and there is no table to link them all together as per the CityTrain, Connex Melbourne and other Australian systems. SM247 20:28, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Car details
May I suggest that we do not need a complete listing of converted motor cars in this article, as it is very technical and only likely to be of relevance to hardcore gunzels who can find this information more accurately elsewhere? Jammo (SM247) 04:56, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

Renaming of article to 'Cityrail S Set'
As the L and R sets are no longer in existence, perhaps this article should be renamed to reflect these changes? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.233.110.55 (talk) 10:32, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Agree sets have always operated as S sets. R and L sets only came into existence in the 1980s. The 2 car sets operated as T sets up until the arrival of the Tangaras.Mo7838 (talk) 05:55, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Timetabled services with S sets
The article states that the government announced all services apart from those on the Olympic Park line will be run be air-conditioned trains. While the Sydney Trains website says that S sets run only on the T7 Olympic Park shuttle, S sets also run the the Cumberland and Carlingford line. Should this be mentioned as an inaccuracy in the government's reporting, or left out information? Thanks, trainsandtech (talk) 02:57, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

Rename to New South Wales S set
Now that Sydney Trains has retired the S sets, should the operator be removed from the name to comply with the names of other now-retired rolling stock in NSW? Cheers, trainsandtech (talk) 04:28, 2 July 2019 (UTC)

Charter runs
In my opinion, I don’t think that information about charter runs (or any run after retirement) belong on Wikipedia because eventually you’d be listing runs over and over and over again that it just becomes insignificant. Could you imagine a list in the year 2050 with every single historic run of an S set since 2018? It’d be a huge list. If you look at articles on 3801, the Red Rattlers, 620/720 railcars, etc, they don’t have an individual listing of charter/heritage runs. This sort of information belongs on a Facebook group or train fan website, not Wikipedia. Also, it’s virtually impossible to cite a charter run that isn’t publicly advertised. Also, WP:NOTNEWS backs this up as well. Fork99 (talk) 04:56, 29 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Also, WP:VERIFY and WP:ORIGINAL apply here too. By citing “yourself” as a source or “I saw it go past St Leonards” isn’t acceptable by Wikipedia’s own rules. Fork99 (talk) 05:02, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

Renaming of article to New South Wales Goninan and Comeng S Set
This is so it fits in better with the Red Rattler article names. (Although then again, it is kinda long) — Preceding unsigned comment added by GriffinRails (talk • contribs) 09:53, 31 August 2021 (UTC)

Move 5 January 2022
New South Wales S set → New South Wales L, R & S sets – I believe we should also mention the names of the 2-car (L), 3-car (L), and 6-car (R) sets in the title, not just the 4-car (S). Edgar Searle (talk) 23:43, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

Move back please
To New South Wales S set please, thanks --Edgar Searle (talk) 04:46, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
