Talk:Ospizio Bernina railway station

2253 vs 2256
I can not open that link. But why on a plate attached to the wall of the station, it is written: 2256 m? --Hercules63 (talk) 23:16, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Because the plate is over a hundred years old, it is not accurate. The correct elevation, given by the state-of-the-art swisstopo maps (link: ) is 2,253 metres asl. If your are not convinced, please check the RhB website . ZachG (Talk) 16:47, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Ok. (but plate isn't like a 100 years old) . --Hercules63 (talk) 22:07, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure how old the plate is but I found a journal from 1911 (just one year after the opening of the station) with the height indicated by the plate. So it's based on old measurements in any case, and those are typically off by a few metres, that's why swisstopo should be preferred over elevation signs, no matter how nice and shiny they look :-) ZachG (Talk) 15:46, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Maybe this fact (difference in height) should be noted in the article? --Hercules63 (talk) 20:50, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
 * Absolutely (and done). ZachG (Talk) 18:17, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
