Lemma/Subject of the article

I am a German with limited English vocabulary, but I think the article is named wrongly because of wrong translation. The German topic "Westliche Einführung der Riedbahn" does not mean an entrance to a railway, but it's about leading in the railroad line from north along western parts of Mannheim into the the city where the Main Station is located. So "Westliche Einführung der Riedbahn" it's something like "Western lead in of the Riedbahn" or "Western approach of the Riedbahn". Maybe someone is able to find the correct term for correction. --HubiB (talk) 06:55, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This was my first thought about the lemma, too. --Ikar.us (talk) 15:03, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am fairly relaxed about this. "Approach" may be more natural than "lead-in"; "of" is probably preferable to "to" or "from". It does raise the issue of whether "approach" should be capitalised in English. I am leaning to "Western approach of the Riedbahn". Obviously "Western approach of the Riedbahn to Mannheim" is too long. I will leave time to other comments before moving.--Grahame (talk) 01:34, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
