Which station is this?


I went for Raynes Park. A weak guess. I know Herne Hill but I wouldn't have got it anyway.

I WAS WATCHING the 1973 film "White Cargo" two days ago, a British sex comedy starring David Jason.

At 27:00 he is at a station, Woldingham Railway station.

So I added an item to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woldin...ailway_station
namely:
"The station appears briefly in the 1973 David Jason film ''White Cargo'', at the 27:00 minute mark."

That tiny but apparently earth-shattering contri was gone within a day:
it was "unsourced trivia".


Add it again with a reference this time to a source?

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0283137/locations " Woldingham Station,
Woldingham, Surrey, England, UK (Albert goes to The Grange, Upper
Woldingham)" with of course the date you retrieved it

Of course IMDB is not a primary source but I'd guess most Wiki warriors
won't want to go there


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_IMDb

IMDb content which is in dispute about whether it is appropriate to
reference on Wikipedia:

Released films only: Sections such as the cast list, character
names, the crew lists, release dates, company credits, awards,
soundtrack listing, filming locations, technical specs, alternate
titles, running times, and rating certifications.
