I've just started working on a new InfoBox for the commuter train stations. I still have to do an imagry header, but I'd like some feedback before I implement the infobox for full coverage.

Here's one prototype I've set up:

I noticed you had done that... was wondering what the benefit of a transadelaide-specific one is? It looks good, though.

Well, all the other capital cities have something like that, so might as well do it here.

I'm presently retired from my activities there, but I can tell you right away that the image header you're using will not last. It is a copyright violation (the Adelaide Metro logo is not free to be used in such ways).

Ah, thanks for the info. I'll edit it ASAP.

Update: I've finished all the stops on the Belair line (I will try to get all the pics done this coming week), and also finished 1/2 of the Noarlunga line. I expect it all to be done (with full pictures) in about 2-3 weeks.

Norman. I've got photos of every station from:

Keswick - Blackwood
Woodville - Grange
North Adelaide - Ovingham and Islington - Smithfield
Bowden - Croydon and Port Adelaide
Oaklands

I'm still working on the rest of the system as I have time and can be bothered. Let me know what photos you need.

Great work there Norman.

The Adelaide train pages will serve as an excellent historical reference for when I bulldoze all the tracks and replace them with OBahn.. or possibly monorails.. I haven't decided yet. ;)

Another update...

All lines bar the Gawler Central line stops have been Infoboxed, with photos on pretty much all of those Infoboxed.

Out of 86 stations, 62 have been Infoboxed and 47 have high-quality photos.
