Talk:Londonderry and Lough Swilly Railway

Untitled

Just a comment on the most recent change specifying the "registered office" to be in Letterkenny, not Derry - that is certainly a very interesting link with the CRO number and I see on this page: http://www.solocheck.ie/FreeIrishCompanyReport?companyNumber=900404&companyName=LONDONDERRY+AND+LOUGH+SWILLY+RAILWAY+COMPANY the Incorporated Date is 28/09/1925 - anybody any idea of the significance of that date? Could it be that there are separate company entities in RoI and NI? Perhaps the original company continued in Derry and this one was set up in RoI for administrative convenience after partition? I'm wildly speculating here but interested all the same. I'm responsible for the "Northern Ireland Bus Site" where I believe some of the original content for this page was lifted from (uncredited, but I'm not complaining) - on that page I said "the company now calls the Pennyburn address its registered office" - that is based on the actual wording on a "with compliments" slip I received from the company when I wrote to them to request a copy of the timetable in 1998 or so. If the registered company offices were in Letterkenny since 1925, I'm very curious then as to the reason for this mention in 1998 of the registered office being in Pennyburn, on the official company with compliments stationery. Perhaps someone has an answer. --Paul K 84.189.47.198 19:32, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Name

I'm not convinced from what is in the article that the Londonderry in the name refers to the county and not the city. I think it's the city, officially known as Londonderry at that time. Londonderry should not be linked to Londonderry, as on Wikipedia the city is known as Derry as per WP:IMOS, but I don't think it should be linked to County Londonderry either, so I've delinked it. If there is a source or something that indicates it does refer to County Londonderry rather than the city, and I'm just mistaken, then by all means relink it to the county.

Seems very unlikely to have meant the county as opposed to the city, considering where the terminus was. Suckindiesel (talk) 13:36, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
