[edit] New name
It might be an idea to rename this templete to Template:British defunct TOCs to bring it in line with the naming of the other template (British TOCs). Our Phellap 12:26, 6 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Sub-brands
A sub brands section needs to be created on this template, as there are some defunct sub brands coming up in the future (Central Citylink, a notable sub brand is coming to an end soon,for example).Dewarw 19:43, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

How about this when the time comes. Dewarw 19:52, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Generally yes. I've just made a few slight alterations, mainly putting the links to the other templates at the bottom, to help make the title clearer and more relevant to the template. I would of done this on the Current one, but the footnotes were in the way. Also, GNER won't appear on here until December 9th.

[edit] Template Merger
I think that the prospective/current/future templates should be put next to each other in the same way that we had the Current and Upcoming together.
This will allow Wiki users to navigate from any TOC past, present or future to any other with just one click.
This is a "sort of" merger, but there would be three boxes in the one template.
What do others think? Too complicated? Unnecessary? Too big? Dewarw 16:52, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- See main discussion at Template talk:British TOCs#Template Merger. We might as well discuss this in one place only. Simply south 17:04, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sub-brands
A sub brands section needs to be created on this template, as there are now at least 3 defunct sub brands out there, with more on the way in the future. Other TOC templates have them. I will not go an create this, because last time, my edit was reverted- I do not want to start an edit war. However, creating this will improve the template and the life of Wiki users, making the subbrands more discoverable and easier to get to- a key factor in Wikipedia.Dewarw 20:35, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Parents
Can i direct anyone to WT:Rail#Defunct companies and their owners? -- Simply south (talk) 21:24, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Changes
I have made quite some changes to the templates (one leads to another etc!). Are they ok? Dewarw (talk) 00:19, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
