:As I've said before, geography is not my strong point! Interestingly Marshall states that the station opened as Ironbridge and Broseley, but on 9 November 1895 it was changed to Iron Bridge and Broseley on the recommendation of the General Manager. As Marshall says, "the reason is obscure" given the name of the town. Maybe geography wasn't the GM's strong point either. However photographs such as [http://www.nrm.org.uk/ourcollection/photo?group=Sellick%20collection&objid=1997-7219_RJS_SV_51 Sellick's] do seem to show a gap in the name! Ignoring that, on balance yes we probably should redirect it to an Ironbridge and Broseley page, but for simplicity I'd be happy to leave the maps abbreviated to Ironbridge, as that seemed to be the norm on published timetables. --[[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 18:03, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
:: I didn't know it was usually abbreviated to just Ironbridge in some railway documents, actually! I'll move it and add an extra redirect from "Iron Bridge and Broseley". --[[User:Danny252|Danny252]] ([[User talk:Danny252|talk]]) 18:25, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
