Talk:Suburban electrification of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway

What is the point of this article? It is almost entirely negative, and seems to suggest that the only electrification schemes worth talking about are those of the "Big Four". The Liverpool Overhead Railway opened in 1893 and was connected to the L&YR (part of the LMSR surely?) in 1905; the L&YR followed in 1904/06/13 with the Merseyside lines to Southport; and the L&NWR (another part of the LMS) got going in London with the lines out from Euston and Broad Street in 1916/1922; the Bury line (L&YR again) 1916; the Midland on the Lancaster to Morecambe line. Why does the article have to worded thus - the other railways mentioned (eg Southern) took over already existing schemes too.
 * and in point of fact the Hammersmith and City line (electrified in 1906) was joint Metropolitan/Great Western Railway; and the Ealing & Shepherd's Bush Railway, although worked by the Central London Railway, belonged to the GWR too - so the observation about the GWR is strictly incorrect.
 * I have a feeling that the article is all "off the top-of-the head" stuff!!! Peter Shearan 09:33, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * This article needs a lot of work, i'm (slowly) incorporating most of the infomration into the bigger article Railway electrification in Great Britain (as i can't see the equivilant of this article for Soutehrn, GWR or LNER). Pickle 14:42, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
