Duplication

The Birkenhead, Lancashire and Cheshire Junction Railway was renamed to Birkenhead Railway in 1860 but both names have their own article. These should be merged. The company was an amalgamation of the Birkenhead, Lancashire and Cheshire Railway and the Chester and Birkenhead Railway, the latter also having its own article. These two companies built only one line each so it should be sufficient to have an article about both a line and a company. The first one already has one, the Chester–Manchester line, although it needs to be shortened to the section Chester–Warrington. The remainder is a different line that already has an article. For the Chester and Birkenhead Railway on the other hand no corresponding article exists so that page could become an article about the line as well. --PhiH (talk) 18:00, 18 November 2020 (UTC) I have just noticed that some article say the C&BR was merged into the BL&CJR, not mentioning a Birkenhead, Lancashire and Cheshire Railway at all. --PhiH (talk) 06:53, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
