The result was delete. Previous AfD, which closed as "no consensus", had many words but not much in the way of policy and proof, and some of the keeps are puzzling--I do not know how to parse "notability is not and never has been a criteria for deletion". But if this is not a train station, and given the poor sourcing, there is no reason to accept it is notable. Drmies (talk) 03:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Corning (Amtrak station)

This article was previously nominated for deletion in 2007. Since then Amtrak has ceased serving the station. It's still used as a stop by the county bus service, the Tehama Rural Area Express (TRAX), but that's all. Bus stations aren't presumptively notable and I don't see that this stop passes the GNG. Though I favored keeping in 2007, I think that I must have thought it was an actual train station, which was not the case then or now. There's no obvious merge candidate absent an article on TRAX. If the article is kept, it needs to move to either Corning Transportation Center or Corning Intermodal Transit Station as there's no Amtrak connection whatsoever.

Delete - apparently a bus station, not a railway station. No evidence that there is any notablily attached thereto. Info can be covered in the article on the locality. Mjroots (talk) 21:48, 18 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep Once notable always notable. If it was notable as an active train stop, it is still notable as an inactive one. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 19:03, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ): you do realize that no train ever stopped here, right? It was never more than a bus station. Mackensen (talk) 23:40, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
