Talk:Turboliner

Request for expansion

From the RfE page, here's what the problem is (if it's not apparent already...)

The Turboliner was a trainset used by Amtrak on a number of routes from the 1970s up until the 90s. There is a bunch of information already here about its current state of affairs, but the older history sections have absolutely nothing in them. It would be great if a railfan or someone else with knowledge on this topic really filled in the holes. There are also some sites with info provided using HTML comments at the end of the article. lensovet 02:21, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Care full

Some were equipped with third rail shoes to enable entry into the underground tunnels approaching Grand Central Terminal and New York Penn Station in New York City. The third rail in these stations is not the same!!! Peter Horn User talk 23:25, 20 May 2010 (UTC) Peter Horn User talk 23:27, 20 May 2010 (UTC)

Disposition

I understand that the quoted classified ad provides useful information, but it is in fact an advertisement. Also, I could not find the ad in any of the citations. Next time I have a chance, I think I'm going to rewrite this section to be more encyclopedic unless anyone can give me a good reason not to, anyone? Parcanman (talk) 03:19, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Please do; I think it's enough to state that Amtrak's trying to unload them. Mackensen (talk) 11:10, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

I removed the whole Disposition section as the reference provided does not show either the quote that was supposed to come from it, or anything like it. I tried searching Google for the quote, and found multiple forum posts which contained the quote using the same site (http://www.progressiverailroading.com/) as the source of the quote, but I did not find any site that looked like a reasonable encyclopedic reference. I am a member of a few railroad forums and will ask around to see if anyone knows of a site that could be used as a good reference, but until I (or anyone else) can find a credible reference, the quote from the advertisement should stay out of this article.

I forgot to describe the edit where I removed the "Disposition" section before I saved the page, the edit was "04:13, 29 July 2010". Parcanman (talk) 04:25, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
