Staffing

[edit]

Staff were not withdrawn from Withington station as you say as my father was the signalman there till 1961. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.144.21.76 (talk) 10:47, 10 September 2010

The station staff is generally taken to mean the station master, porters, booking clerks. The signalling staff come under a different department, Signals & Telegraph, and if a line remained open after the closure of the stations, the signal boxes would remain, and each would need staff. --Redrose64 (talk) 11:25, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Updating to dab recommendations of WP:UKSTATION and the RfC. In these cases, where there were 2 Withington stations in England, the guideline recommends using the county; (Glos) and (Hereford) are confusing: with the former, "Glos" is not immediately WP:RECOGNIZABLE to many readers, and with the latter, the station was not in Hereford. The mid-phrase disambiguation has also specifically been deprecated in favour of standard parenthetical disambiguation. Cúchullain t/c 17:36, 8 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
