Conducting review

I will undertake the review here. The article appears neutral, stable, and appropriately referenced. The image appears to be in order. The text appears to cover main issues, principally the scope of the fleet and the history of the comapny's estbalishment, which in this case is particularly notable. The references appear sound, and are accepted in good faith as i don't read Norwegian.

I have undertaken some minor copyediting tasks. These aside, I do not think the article requires revision to be assessed as GA. hamiltonstone (talk) 06:28, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I took a look at the references and they generally support the facts they are attached to, but there are some problems. Reference 2 does not mention anything about Dispolok, nor who owns the shunters. Number 8, 9, 10 and 14 does not exist. Reference 19 states that Cargolink was founded in 2007, not 2008. I think 2008 is correct, though. Reference 20 states that Cargolink's license was issued on 17 September, not 18 September. Not really a problem, but reference 11 and 12 mention the same facts and are therefore interchangeable. There is also a question of how many locomotives Cargolink has. Some sources say 10 diesel locomotives, other mention only 3. It is possible that only three have been put into service so far. The article does not mention the electric locomotives Cargolink uses in some trains, nor do any of the sources. In general, I am also sceptical about using newspapers as references, but I won't make a fuss about it if Wikipedia accepts them. Ters (talk) 08:05, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
