I have added Littlehampton and Bognor to the list of stations since the timetable map includes both of them. I have also changed the title at the head of the list - it isn't "principal stations", but all of them! I intend to add to the article so that it is similar to the one I produced for the East Coastway Line: in other words a comprehensive survey. Peter Shearan 10:21, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Name "west coastway line"
Where does the name come from? I mean, I've never heard it called that. I know the touristy areas have the Tarka line and such, but is this label just naming for the sake of giving it a name? Graldensblud 15:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
- a)I don't know!
- b)we need to call the lines something
- c)doing some quick research, for example SEG (http://www.semg.org.uk/)'s archive from "the railway magazine" calls (1946) it "The L.B.S.C.R's West Coast Section", in 1938 its reffered to as "Sussex coast" (not saying which side of brighton) as part of the "Portsmouth No 2" scheme.
- When we haven't got a name we just tend to put names like "portsmouth to brighton" line....
