"Most produced" assertion

Something I have not been able to verify is the statement that this play is the "most produced play in British repertory theatre". The Mousetrap might have played the most continuous performances, but The Ghost Train has been cited as having the most productions. I also heard that all of the cast Members of Dad's Army had at one time been in an Arnold Ridley production of the play. The story goes that, if he heard a pal was down on his luck, Ridley would invite him on one of his periodic repertory tours. After years of such charity, he was written into Dad's Army as a thank you. It's one of those "nice" stories that fits with the Private Godfrey persona. 87.243.192.81 13:04, 3 January 2007 (UTC)Gordon[reply]

Written in 1923, or 1925?

This article says 1923. The BBC [1] says 1925. 31.53.185.104 (talk) 10:44, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

December 2016

Bardrick, I'm having trouble deciding whether your edits to The Ghost Train (play) are improvements or not. I think the word you were reaching for in that last edit is "reprised". Does the source for Oh, Mr. Porter! say "loosely based on" rather than "adapted"? The article for the film says "loosely based on". Why is "extant" better than "survive"? —jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 02:32, 2 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Par ghost train

The china clay trains to Par in cornwall are supposed to have played a part in the idea. Thet still are ghostly white from the china clay. 86.183.162.251 (talk) 10:29, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
