Comment -- I presume this is about a railroad, probably a branch line, but a subdivision of what? What is the expansion of the abbreviation? At present this article is gooblegook, but at present I cannot understand it. It may be that notability can be established (knowing that every station in UK seems to have its own article), buty in its present state I cannot judge that.

- Subdivision of CSX, I guess. --Redrose64 (talk) 14:57, 15 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I found and added five print sources from Google Books in about as many minutes. Haus^Talk 16:25, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't believe that those sources show notability. SL93 (talk) 17:07, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Subdivisions of railroads are only occasionally notable; this isn't one that is. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 19:55, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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

Delete - Isn't there a larger section of track that this should or is already included in? I would suggest merging in whatever's there, but no need for the redirect to stick around either (I guess you could history merge if it mattered...) Shadowjams (talk) 09:09, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of CSX Transportation lines - This is surprisingly well-referenced for an article that is tagged for deletion. From what little I've found, it seems to be a segment of some old railroad line that was bought out by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. ----DanTD (talk) 22:45, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The refs were added after it went to AFD, although they are all general refs - none are inline. --Redrose64 (talk) 09:36, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Be that as it may, I still think it would be better off redirected, if it's not kept. ----DanTD (talk) 16:10, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'd think it's a rather unlikely search term, but would not object to redirecting. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 15:01, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
