Talk:Helsinki Central Station

Deletion of the Infobox VR station template.

Why is there a template called Infobox VR station? It is used only in a single article. Why not use the standard {{Infobox building}} template?

--Siipikarja 00:49, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

A good idea. Why don't you replace it with the building infobox? Teemu Leisti 22:43, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

"First opened in 1862"

Both this article and Pasila railway station claim the stations were first opened in 1862. While this might be true for stations in general located in Helsinki centre and Pasila, it is certainly not true for the actual station buildings. The central station is "only" about 90 years old, and I'm sure the Pasila station is many decades younger. There have been station buildings in both the centre and Pasila earlier, but I don't think the old central station exists any more. The old Pasila station is a small wooden building near the Pasila central bureau building (Pasilan virastotalo / Böle ämbetshus). JIP | Talk 20:44, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

wrong => removed

There was a sentence saying According to Kari Pekka Rosenholm, the former station manager, the lounge is the only one of its kind in the entire world. Sry, that's no reliable source . Imo the sentence was/is wrong - arguments in de:Fürstenbahnhof :

After Napoleon's end, the area that became the German Empire in 1871 was ruled by many Fürsten and Kings, i.e. Kingdom of Saxony, Kingdom of Bavaria, Kingdom of Wuerttemberg, Großherzogtum Baden, [[Kingdom of Prussia], ... . There were Railway stations called "Fürstenbahnhof" only for Kings, Fürsten etc, and there were 'Fürstenzimmer' in many railway stations. Nahezu alle zwischen etwa 1860 und 1918 erbauten Großstadtbahnhöfe und Bahnhöfe in bedeutenden Kurorten besaßen entsprechende Räumlichkeiten. 1895 verzeichneten die Preußischen Staatseisenbahnen allein 116 solcher Anlagen, 1918 waren es 153 und in ganz Deutschland mehr als 300. (translated: almost all stations built betqween 1860 and 1918 had 'Fürstenzimmer'. An inventory written in 1895 lists that the Prussian state railways had 116 of those facilities ; in 1918 there were 153 and in the whole German Empire more than 300.)

The Ring Rail Line

The Ring Rail Line (Kehärata, Ringbanan) was opened in July 2015, replacing line M with lines I and P. Please update this information to the infobox. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.222.124.240 (talk) 17:13, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Undue weight to 4 January 2010 incident

This article has an entire section, taking up almost a page on my screen, about the 4 January 2010 incident. Half of the references in this article are solely about this incident. The Finnish article, which is three and a half times as long as this article, covers it with one sentence with a single reference. I'd otherwise suggest moving the incident to a separate article but this article is short enough as it is, at least compared to the Finnish article. JIP | Talk 23:32, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
