The result of the debate was PAGE MOVED per request and discusison below, as well as archived discussion. A couple of objections were raised to this move, based on the idea that we'd have to move a bunch of other stations now. On the pro-move side, the fact that the stations official name is "London Victoria" pretty much carried the day. Unless all the other station articles have titles that differ from the stations' official names, I don't think we'll have a problem. -GTBacchus(talk) 08:24, 30 October 2006 (UTC) Victoria station (London) → London Victoria station — re-implement archived discussions DJR (T) 15:06, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Support - currently sounds overly convoluted, "London Victoria" sounds better, is used and i can't get away with calling it just "Victoria"! - Pickle 16:00, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
Support - less contrived and more commonly used than current name. -- Chris j wood 13:10, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

For some reason i recall some one asking about platform 8 being in southern of southeastern usage. I got a southeastern train from 8 (its on its own on the southeastern side) on Friday. I also have a feeling this data was relevant;
Platform 1 - 12 Cars
Platform 2 - 14 Cars
Platform 3 - 8 Cars
Platform 4 - 8 Cars
Platform 5 - 12 Cars (10 Car Networker)
Platform 6 - 12 Cars (10 Car Networker)
Platform 7 - 12 Cars
Platform 8 - 8 Cars
Platform 9 - 12 Cars
Platform 10 - 12 Cars

The article states that it was a man, David Corner, that was killed. However, I see to recall it was a woman that died. Can anyone throw some light on this? A bit iffy 11:33, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:London Paddington station which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RFC bot 12:00, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
Reference " It is named after nearby Victoria Street and not Queen Victoria. " If Victoria Street is named after Queen Victoria (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria,_London), surely Victoria Station is also named after Queen Victoria? Does anyone know where was this "fact" gleaned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.60.118.38 (talk) 12:58, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
With regret, I undid this edit which added an image of a German-language email concerning a Victoria station sign at Hamburg-Harburg station. With the best will in the world I cannot see how it enhances the article; I feel it's inappropriate in a couple of ways, at least, but would be happy to discuss it here. If there's a place for this it might be better at the Harburg article but even there I wouldn't feel that this email image is itself the thing we'd want to display. Sorry, no unkindness intended here. Best wishes to all, DBaK (talk) 16:27, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Not quite sure how cultural an Ernest Bevin quote would be, but one often runs across his remark, as Foreign Secretary, that his foreign policy was to be able "to take a ticket at Victoria station and go anywhere I damn' well please!". There's a citation here, and although Boris Johnson used to be editor of the source, I understand it is nonetheless not regarded as unreliable. Tim riley talk 15:05, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

Firstly, I think the DLR "future" is bit too much WP:CRYSTAL - plans have been suggested, but not seriously for a number of years. Snip, modify or keep? Secondly, the photo of the tube station portrays an entrance that no longer exists! Can someone change it to a more appropriate picture? Cheers, Turini2 (talk) 21:44, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
In the Victoria line subsection it says "In the 1990s, a new underground passageway underneath the bus station was built, connecting the Victoria line ticket hall with the District and Circle line ticket hall". This cannot be right. Surely the passageway was built as part of the original Victoria line station in the 1960s? At all events, I used it frequently in the early 1970s so it certainly does not date from the 1990s. -- Alarics (talk) 22:36, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

The Southeastern section was last revised in December 2021 but now needs an update to bring it line with the May 2022 timetable change.I have looked over the timetables on the Southeastern Web page and have come up with a TPH list. Please can someone kindly take some time out of their leisure to review the timetables and make sure the following is correct? :)
It may be incorrect :) But If it is, feel free to edit it. I have decided to post here before I change it in the main page just in case it had any mistakes. (Unsigned comment by User:AvidWriter123, 15:54 UTC, 30 August 2022)
I would just like to add that I used the hour of 12:00 to gather my information if anyone would like to review the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AvidWriter123 (talk • contribs) 15:24, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
