The one you added is great pic as a free-standing image but for our purposes it doesn't really distinguish this station from many similar ones. Did you do any more pics, perhaps one that has more of the station buildings, (if any!), the name plate, that sort of thing. See for example this pic of Little Kimble. If not, it doesn't really matter but would be nice. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 10:26, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- Hi. John.
- I do have more pics but I will need to see if if it contains the name plate, platforms and the station buildings.

- No worries, I thought maybe you lived locally and could look again when taking your daily exercise. The principle of pictures on Wikipedia is "to illustrate, not to decorate" (though you will find many examples where it is not respected). The background is "a picture is worth a thousand words", but also to give someone who could never get there a good idea of how it looks. Or to help people who get anxious about visiting unfamiliar places and the more they can see beforehand the easier it gets (admittedly not a big issue at this station, more relevant to the big mainline terminuses). --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 16:13, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- (By the way, this ::: notation is just to provide indent so that it is more obvious about which reply follows which. Again, not really an issue here but you might want to use it at other talk pages). --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 16:13, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
