QPQ is done, the hook is interesting and appears in the article referenced. The article is free of copyright violations and it has the correct inline citations. The article is neutral and it is long enough and was recently awarded good article status. Bruxton (talk) 20:09, 12 February 2023 (UTC)- Comment In my opinion, I do not think ALT0 is particularly interesting. What did pop out to me while reading the article was
The station has mostly stayed the same since 1914, with only minor upgrades taking place.
I think that could be the basis of a much more interesting hook. A train station that has been in continuous service for over 100 years with almost no changes seems interesting to me. This is just my opinion, and I am acting in my capacity as an editor, not as a promoter. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:50, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
