Well one mans meat is another mans poison. What many posters to this ng might
suggest is that if the header doesn't appeal then don't bloody well open and
read it. Some people might enjoy discussing the number of the loco on the
Nunawading ballast train.

In your case when you post a list of stations like above why don't you get it
right with a bit of research before posting some incorrect places. And do you
mean closed (line closed) or closed for passengers only then reopened?
