Maybe this might be mentioned in the article...
United Kingdom See also: 5 ft 6 in gauge in Scotland The 1,676 mm (5 ft 6 in) broad gauge was actually first used in Scotland for two short, isolated lines, the Dundee and Arbroath Railway (1836-1847) and the Arbroath and Forfar Railway (1838- ). Both the lines were subsequently converted to standard gauge. -- Grijalvo ( talk) 10:11, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

A GA from 2009. There's some uncited statements that need to be cited. Onegreatjoke ( talk) 18:23, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
Given the number of notable people I wonder if it would improve the article to spin off this section to a separate article/list. Rupples ( talk) 02:46, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
In the third series of Torchwood (known as Children of Earth (2009)), an orphanage was situated in Arbroath called Holly Tree Lodge, where 12 orphans in 1965 were abducted by an alien race known as the 456.
The above is not sourced. The only reference I've found is to a fandom site. I've heard of Torchwood but confused what this means - is/was there a real Holly Tree Lodge orphanage or is it a fictitious place? There's an image on the fandom site, which looks like a still from the series. I'm inclined to remove this from the article. Views? Rupples ( talk) 13:32, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
This subsection gives house price details for 2006. Haven't seen this in other articles on UK places and it's not a suggested inclusion in Wikipedia:WikiProject UK geography/How to write about settlements. If this is included why not rents? Would require frequent updating. On balance, I'm for removing this. Thoughts? Rupples ( talk) 22:50, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
Shouldn't we add that the Mackays marmalade company is located in Arbroath? 98.123.38.211 ( talk) 16:24, 17 March 2024 (UTC)
