Proposed name changes

edit

I would like to propose the following name changes. The changes listed, which I believe are in line with WP:USSTATION, would clean up the small mess that exists today with the various Hyannis railroad station articles. Here is what I propose:
- Change the name of Hyannis Railroad Station to "Hyannis station (Cape Cod Central Railroad)"
- Change Old Hyannis Railroad Station to "Hyannis station (New Haven Railroad)"
- No change for Hyannis Transportation Center
- Creation of a Disambiguation page named "Hyannis station" with links to the articles noted above.
Comments are welcome.FFM784 (talk) 22:40, 14 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Support: this appears to be the best way to deal with the tangle. (CCCR) and (NYNH&H) are the more standard parentheticals, though - may want to use those. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 21:27, 21 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the comment. Will follow your advise RE parenthicals. Will implement now that 10+ days for comment have past.FFM784 (talk) 01:57, 1 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Side note: I've merged the 1953-1964 station into this article - there just wasn't enough independent history to justify a separate article. I'm about to also merge it with the HTC article; except for the separate ticketing areas, they essentially act as a single station, and that allows the full history to be in one place.
