![]() | The contents of George Bradshaw#Bradshaw's railway guides was merged into Bradshaw's Guide on 9 August 2017. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Merge from George Bradshaw#Bradshaw's railway guides into Bradshaw's Guide
[edit]I don't really have the patience to do it on my own, but I think that the text at the George Bradshaw article should be moved to this one, leaving a lengthy summary in the original location. Any concerns, please say so, or else be bold and move the text. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 16:16, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
rule of thumb for you
[edit]the Bradshaw page is SIX screens, the Guide page is FIVE screens -- once a discreet topic reaches such a size they should NOT be combined; okay, Shakespeare has to be gigantic, but not everybody using Wikipedia has bandwidth or RAM to accomodate large-size pages on lesser topics (for my own website content, I break up pages that reach 100KB of HTML code) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:558:6001:6:3592:5B65:8C7D:E3ED (talk) 20:51, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
- I agree.
- I suggest we move about four screens from the George Bradshaw page to the Guide page. Then I think the Guide page should then be split up into articles about the different editions.

- Agreed and
Done. Note that the final target page size is only 27kB even with all text moved, so size isn't a problem. Klbrain (talk) 11:45, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
- Agreed and
1913
[edit]Is there any 1913 version? . I saw a TV Railway series based on it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.175.41.227 (talk) 10:38, 30 July 2017 (UTC)
- Highly likely. There were several editions every year. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 18:25, 30 July 2017 (UTC)

ABC murders
[edit]Maybe the Agatha Christie novel "The ABC Murders" should be added in the references part. (Chapter 4 of the book) Maat777 (talk) 12:59, 3 April 2025 (UTC)
