Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on London and Greenwich Railway. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20081202092138/http://www.portcities.org.uk/london/server/show/ConMediaFile.445/Raising-DeptfordCreek-Railway-Bridge.html to http://www.portcities.org.uk/london/server/show/ConMediaFile.445/Raising-DeptfordCreek-Railway-Bridge.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Referencing/Sourcing

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

On inspection referencing/sourcing is a tad muddled (Adding online refernece Whitshaw as further reading was almost good almost? duplicating existing general source was an issue). I'm expecting Thomas' book in a few days and I'll see if I can help at some point.Djm-leighpark (talk) 06:56, 26 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Final length?

Latest comment: 10 months ago3 comments2 people in discussion

The article states the original design was just under 4 miles long, but there is no further mention of the constructed length. Anyone have the number? It seems close to that, but it appears the end points moved slightly. Maury Markowitz (talk) 17:48, 28 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

According to

Whishaw, Francis (1842). The Railways of Great Britain and Ireland (2nd ed.). London: John Weale. p. 285.

the railway from the London terminus which is immediately over Joiner Street, Southwark to the station in London Street, Greenwich was 33⁄4 miles. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:26, 28 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Seems worth adding... Maury Markowitz (talk) 19:19, 28 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
