Comments on referencing[edit]

Please note that locomotives and many other objects have only one set of things like weights, measures, performance and so on. You can read about the better known ones in many publications but the basic info is the same in all of them. There really isn't a need for many sources when they all say the same thing. There's no interpretation of these fixed values because they are...fixed.

Also, in some cases with older locomotives that were produced long ago, there may be only one reference available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michou 13 (talkcontribs) 16:28, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Referencing technical details isn't about citing interpretations of them, it's about verifying them. Some topics are hard to find references for, but one reference is not enough; as topics age, there is a greater chance that more people have written about them, and therefore the possibility of finding more references for them (even if the references are not online) increases.
