- That was a fun read; thanks! Overall a great article, though I have left a few comments below. I will put this on hold for one week, but I really doubt that we will need that long. I must also disclaim that I do not speak American English so let me know if I have made any erroneous comments. P.S., thanks for the ALT text! 𓃦LunaEatsTuna (💬) 17:28, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Prose
[edit]- The line parameter of the infobox has 'Wisconsin and Southern Railroad Fox Lake Subdivision' whilst this is not mentioned elsewhere in the article's prose. This is acceptable, as it is also the only referenced parameter, but is there a reason why this is not mentioned somewhere?
Erledigt Added to article.
- For the last sentence in the opening paragraph of Amtrak, the parentheses are not necessary; the text should be fine without them.
Erledigt
- "doubled ridership on the Lake Country Limited – from 5-6 daily to 11 – but it returned to the former level by fall." suggest changing to "but it returned to its former level by fall." which IMO flows better?
- I think "the" works better, since "its" was used to refer to the station earlier in the sentence.
- Fair enough—I agree.
- I think "the" works better, since "its" was used to refer to the station earlier in the sentence.
- "it was canceled from December 27, 2000, to February 2, 2001 due to equipment shortages," should be "it was canceled between December 27, 2000, and February 2, 2001 due to equipment shortages," unless to is preferred in American English?
Erledigt
- Any updates since 2001?
- Not that I found.
- Noted.
- Not that I found.
- hinzufügen template:Use mdy dates and template:Use X English (I presume American?) to the top of the article under the short description.

Refs
[edit]All the citations are RS and used correctly.
Spot checks on refs 1, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10 and 12 show no concerns—they all support the article's content.
- Ref 3 is missing a date.
Erledigt
- Recommend archiving sources (which have URLs) on the Wayback Machine. I believe a bot that automatically does this is currently down but only twelve citations should not take long at all.
- I just archived the page, including outlinks, directly with the Wayback Machine. I'm not big on preemptively adding the archive links to everything - I feel it adds bloat without helping the reader - but this ensures that archives will work should any go dead.
