Merge suggestion[edit]

I suggest a merge into Illinois Service. See comments/discussion at Talk:Carl Sandburg (Amtrak). In a nutshell, the six routes that make up the Illinois Service are really just components of that service. I think a nice article could be made from the collection of start class articles. --Elliskev 14:07, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Station codes on stops.[edit]

I added the original station stops section on this page. I appreciate that people have beautified the section etc, but please stop removing the station codes. Insidieux (talk) 01:30, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The formatting looks pretty bad on my system. Are they really needed? Mackensen (talk) 15:47, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Lincoln Service[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Lincoln Service's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "FY2016":

From Piedmont (train): "Amtrak® FY16 Ridership & Revenue" (PDF). National Railroad Passenger Corporation. 17 November 2016. Retrieved 18 August 2017.
From Acela Express: "Amtrak FY16 Ridership & Revenue" (PDF). Amtrak. April 17, 2017. Retrieved November 20, 2017. {{cite web}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |dead-url= (help)
From Northeast Regional: "Amtrak FY16 Ridership and Revenue Fact Sheet" (PDF). Amtrak. April 7, 2017. Retrieved October 13, 2017. {{cite web}}: Cite has empty unknown parameter: |dead-url= (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 03:15, 24 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
