Talk:Stanlow and Thornton railway station

Minor Error in 'Public Transport Interchange' Section.
I do not have a Wikipedia account and didn't want to edit the article myself as I would spoil the lay-out and order. I thought it would be better to let somebody who knows what they're doing to do it!

I am also the owner of the photograph on the article (I originally uploaded it to the Geograph project), so I'd like to thank whoever placed it on here. Thanks!

I'd just like to say that there is a public entrance to the station. The footbridge from which I took the photograph leads down onto a slip-road just off the main through road (Oil Sites Rd) and is open for public access to the station.

Thanks,

David Quinn. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.241.90.204 (talk) 10:29, 19 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Just to concur with the poster above. Oil Sites Road is still open to pedestrians and cyclists (there's even a special path marked out for them). It is only motor vehicles not having business at the refinery that are banned. I visited with a friend today and we reached the station on foot with no problems. While standing on the platform we were visited by a Shell security guard who wanted to know what we doing there. Once he confirmed with us that we had no malign intent, he was on his way. We were very conscious of security cameras tracking our every move whilst there! Rhmeuk (talk) 16:49, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi, was more referring to the fact that Oil Sites Road was shut from the public, and as there is no bus service there, or has ever been one, it is more or less inaccessible anyway. Regardless of that, I have revised the article to meet your concern, but I fear an administrator will decide to add a 'source required' tag which other than the notice of intent to close the road is going to be rather difficult to reference.

In terms of the picture, I do not know who has uploaded that, but I will revise the copyright to reflect your name, and your permission that the image is released freely.

Thanks for using Wikipedia, and get an account with us!!
