WWII spur dates.

edit

One source, which I did not make a note of, said the spur's dates were 1940-1947 but rails existed just south of Yeoveney about 1951 though clearly not usable. "London Commuter Lines" Vol 1 by Frank Hornby, 1999, ISBN 1 85794 115 2 says it was removed in 1959. Perhaps the SR end was removed before 1959.--SilasW (talk) 16:01, 20 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Removal of M25

edit

The inclusion of the motorway bridge symbol implied that there is/was a bridge over the track. The line was severed when the M25 was built. Barry Wom (talk) 10:41, 22 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Barry Wom: We don't leave gaps, the pink indicates a former route - not necessarily one where the trackbed still exists, or could be reconstructed. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:25, 22 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
