Template:Train station table/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a template for generating a platforms & services table, for use in a station article.

Usage

[edit]

This is the basic syntax you need to get a complete table. Just copy and paste the code below:

{{Train station table|top}}
{{Train station table
|stop=
|platform=
|line=
|pattern=
|dest=
|notes=}}
{{train station table|bottom}}

...and fill in the variables! For more entries, use this:

{{Train station table
|stop=
|platform=
|line=
|pattern=
|dest=
|notes=}}

(add above the line {{train station table|bottom}})

Parameters

[edit]

Top row (headings)

[edit]
  • 1= (or first positional parameter): top (required to generate the headings)
  • caption= a caption to display above the table. Optional – may be omitted if directly below a ==Heading== (or ===Sub-heading=== etc.) that serves as a caption.
  • calign= alignment of the caption. Optional – default if not specified is left, other options are center or right

Regular rows

[edit]
  • stop= id code for the platform
  • platform= platform number
  • pspan= number of rows the stop and platform cells span – if value=1, omit this parameter. If used, stop= and platform= should be omitted from the other rows it spans.
    • Alias: sspan=
  • line= railway line
  • lspan= number of rows the line cell spans – if value=1, omit this parameter. If used, line= should be omitted from the other rows it spans.
  • pattern= stopping pattern(s)
    • Alias: stop_pattern=
  • dest= destination
  • notes= Any notes – e.g. days of operation for a stopping pattern
  • nspan= number of rows the notes cell spans – if value=1, omit this parameter. If used, set notes=none for the other rows it spans.

End of table

[edit]
  • 1= (or first positional parameter): bottom (required to close the table)
  • key= A key or legend can be specified here. Optional – may be used if symbols, abbreviations, colours, or other ambiguous markings are used in the table; or to otherwise specify content for the footer of the table, such as sources.
