Recent company name change to "First Rail Stirling"

Latest comment: 2 days ago5 comments3 people in discussion

Hello whomever is reading this, I'm very new to Wikipedia so I don't want to make any edits myself yet, but I thought I'd put it out there that Grand Union recently changed their company name to "First Rail Stirling" (evident through the update on Companies House, link can be found here: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/11408012/filing-history/MzQzMjcyODMzMGFkaXF6a2N4/document?format=pdf&download=0). Hope this helps, and sorry in advance if I've done something wrong haha. -VulpineGWR (talk) 17:21, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Nicely spotted. However, there are no deadlines in Wikipedia, so we don't need to rush to make a change. I think it's best to wait until such change is announced and the First Rail Stirling, or whatever the name might be, is announced for the service. For now just leave be. 10mmsocket (talk) 17:33, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@10mmsocket, @VulpineGWR, per rail magazine as added in a recent good faith but erroneous edit. Added that the London-Stirling route was sold to First but their Carmarthen-London one remains. Basically the company split into two and sold one half? Dank Jae 17:57, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Correct. That's why I reverted that last change. So now I presume we'll need an additional article as it has split into two different TOC's? 10mmsocket (talk) 20:26, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

If it is a notable and ideally a separately branded service, then it could be then. Not sure yet? Dank Jae 22:43, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
