Wikipedia:Peer review/Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I've listed this article for peer review as I have done a fair bit of work to the article and feel it is no longer a Stub article. Prior to this the article had not been updated since 2023.

Any comments or contributions are greatly appreciated.

Hi! I would agree that this is probably not a stub. I'll go ahead an reassess it to a Start-class article. My notes:
  • The first things that stands out to me are the uncited sections:
    • Volunteers restored the stations to their appearance at the height of the old line's service.
    • In 2016, the Edmonton Radial Railway Society donated the former Edmonton Transit Service 2001, a 1912 electric locomotive that once ran on this rail line. This locomotive was in turn donated to the Oregon Electric Railway Historical Society in 2017. This is because the Oregon Electric Railway was the original owner of this locomotive.
Proper citations (or footnotes, if they are referenced elsewhere) are necessary for these sections.
  • Reading the article, it's also a bit unclear to me what the society is. It seems like it's an organization that runs a historic streetcar system, but it's also referred to as being itself a railway. This is a bit confusing, and I think that the wording should probably be adjusted for clarity.
  • It is one of two operating historical tramways in the province.—The two what?
  • The heritage line is 7.4-kilometre (4.6 mi) long...—Shouldn't the plural "kilometres" be used?
  • Volunteers restored the stations to their appearance at the height of the old line's service.—If possible, I think this should be expanded upon. When did this happen? What was the condition of the stations before this?
  • In 2016, the Edmonton Radial Railway Society donated the former Edmonton Transit Service 2001, a 1912 electric locomotive that once ran on this rail line.—On what rail line? The streetcar line?
  • The "Collection" table looks very detailed to me and I particularly liked learning about all the different cars. Good work!
