  • Hi, I just created this new Wikipedia article about the little-known Bermuda Railway. If anyone has any old photographs of the trains, rolling stock, or right-of-way, they'd like to upload for this article, that would be great! JGHowes talk - 02:53, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Railway/railroad?

[edit]

It is WP convention for US articles to use 'railroad', and others 'railway', and for editors to avoid changing one to the other (leading to the frequent adoption of 'rail' instead, to circumvent national linguistic sensibilities!)

However, this article poses a problem. The title clearly uses the word 'Railway', yet the article frequently uses 'railroad' instead. As Bermuda is still a British territory, surely the article should use British English (ie 'railway') throughout?
