:re the above warning, I don't believe that your edit was vandalism. As far as I know, and am trying to confirm, the Hundred of Hoo railway is not, and never has been electrified.

Vandalism
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Hundred of Hoo Railway. When removing text, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the text has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.
