Infobox rail line
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Usage

{{Infobox rail line}} is used for railway lines, i.e. the physical trackage between two or more places; however, this template is also sometimes used on articles about both a company and a line (e.g. Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway). It has no mandatory parameters. {{Infobox rail}} is used to create an infobox for articles about railway companies; i.e. the owner or operating entity.

Including a route diagram

A Route diagram (based on template {{BS-map}})) can be included via |map=. It can be composed right in this template (see first example), or it can be a complete template like |map={{Needham Line}} (second example).


Note that parameter |inline= must be set to a non-empty value, like {{BS-map|inline=yes}}.
