Talk:Bakerloo line

Watford branch

You might consider including the fact that when it opened on 6 June 1915 as part of the extension from Paddington to Queen's Park, Maida Vale was the first station to be entirely staffed by women. Women continued to work there until 1919, when servicemen returning from the war displaced them. Haynesta (talk)10 March 2021 — Preceding undated comment added 12:11, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

You will need to cite a reliable source. -- Alarics (talk) 15:04, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Service pattern

The line's off-peak service pattern was changed in May (TfL press release here: https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2021/may/as-govt-restrictions-ease-further-tfl-is-ready-to-welcome-back-those-returning-to-london) and the new pattern is listed in the working timetable (https://content.tfl.gov.uk/wtt-47-bakerloo-16-may-2021.pdf) which is the primary source for rail frequencies. I have attempted to edit with sources but each time the edit has been reverted as "unsourced". The current service pattern listed is both out of date and fully lacks sources and, hence, should be changed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Guesty1 (talk • contribs) 18:41, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

Checked Guesty1's source and the edits are valid. Added quotation to reference to confirm this. Turini2 (talk) 11:16, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

Oldest running metro stock?

The MP 59 trains for the paris metro, retired this year after 61 years of service were 'among the oldest operating metro trains in the world'. What older rolling stock than the 1972 stock is still commercially operated in the world? Oldboltonian (talk) 14:17, 19 August 2024 (UTC)

There's not many, but examples would be the R44 in NYC, the MP-68 in Mexico City or the MF 67 in Paris. The MF 67 may still be in service in 2030! Turini2 (talk) 16:57, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
