Regarding the use of templates on this page, which is the basis of the "revert war". A compromise was suggested (by yours truly) to keep both the {{Irish train operators}} template and the {{British TOCs}} template on the page. This seemed to be accepted, given the relatively peaceful few days, until a single Wikipedia member decided to renew his hostility. Given that the majority of people have accepted the compromise, surely that should be what is displayed on the page, and not the seeming prejudices of one individual. Hammersfan 10/05/06, 14.15 BST
- Wouldn't it make more sense to remove NI completely from the British TOCs template? There's zero overlap and it would match how the railways are administered --Dtcdthingy 15:24, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

How about a better pic, showing an Enterprise engine with the Enterprise carriages?--Dub8lad1 00:23, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Unsourced statements
Virtually none of the statements of fact in the article are supported by references or citations. I have flagged a few of the more significant ones. The links to the NIR and IE Enterprise Web pages provide only a small amount of general information and advertising, and almost nothing about the history of the service, including interruptions during the Troubles. 4.243.152.8 08:34, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
- While the statements are unsourced, some of these are common knowledge. The speed limit on much of the Enterprise line is 70mph - such as around Lisburn - so it's not possible to reach 90mph on the entire route. On the other hand, disruption is still common, HEP-related loco failures and carriage parking brake faults regularly take the DeDietrich stock out of service, requiring a swap with 071s+Mk2s or 29000/C3K railcars. Rolling stock substitution often delays services significantly. Karsini 23:56, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
