Waterloo vs Waterloo Goods

[edit]

There is a bit of confusion, as I see it, between this article on the one hand, and the articles about Seaforth, New Strand, Oriel Rd, and Bankhall, but not Sandhills (which agreed with here). Those articles refer to the LC&SR having its first southern terminal at Waterloo, while this article has the first terminal near Waterloo Goods Station, which was close to the present Sandhills station. These are not the same station by any means despire the similar names. Waterloo Station was named for the Waterloo Hotel (in Crosby), while Waterloo Goods was named for the Waterloo Dock (in Liverpool). In the course of this delving, I've undone one of Rm2033's apparently bot edits changing Waterloo links to London Waterloo, and as the majority of articles about these stations use the current Waterloo (Merseyside) article as their target, I've gone along with that. I've also changed (for consistency) the Waterloo link in the Sandhills article, as it was to the Waterloo Goods station (which is on a different line altogether. All the stations listed now link to Waterloo railway station (Merseyside). If people knowing more about this area come to a decision about it, the articles about the five stations or the article here about the company will have to be amended.
