Talk:Rotherhithe railway station

Re-opening
We really need a better source than a blog for the re-opening date. TfL seem to be silent on the matter. According to this site, 15 April is "strongly rumoured", but that's not hard fact. -- Red rose64 (talk) 16:11, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

Pic nicked?
The article's opening para states "At the southern end of the station, the approach ramp for the Rotherhithe Tunnel passes above the railway on a bridge, making this road bridge highly unusual for being located below water level. The structure is visible in the picture below". All sounds very interesting, but there ain't not no picture no how nowhere here... It's such a good descriptive passage that I am reticent to expunge it. Can the picture be restored? Or did it ever exist? Is the whole intro just an unedited 'cut-&-paste' job taken thoughtlessly from elsewhere? Can somebody target the 'picture' for resolution? Many thanks. Pete Hobbs (talk) 15:02, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
 * The text concerned was introduced with, and so the picture "below" is this one. It was moved to the gallery with , and removed entirely with . One of the images added in replacement at that time was this pic which is still in the gallery, and (I believe) shows the bridge in question, immediately above the tunnel mouth. -- Red rose64 (talk) 15:55, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that (this)! Having now seen, I judge the original pic to be slightly better for demonstrating what the original writer referred to. So I've restored that pic of the blue road bridge over platforms, and moved down the earlier intro sentence referring. Also improved some words/refs. Had to extend the Layout section's 1st/2nd paras by the extra use of "Rotherhithe" and "station", to get all sitting comfortably without spilled or overhanging. But having referred to the accompanying view from Wapping, I had to re-mention Rotherhithe anyway, to avoid confusion. The whole now gives a good, clear impression of what's "to be seen" from the Rotherhithe platforms, which it didn't before. Thanks again, RR64. Pete Hobbs (talk) 17:38, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
