A 1922 Ca. Rail Commission lists the "County Line and Hershey Warehouses", giving the manager's address as Dunnigan, and they are still there; in fact they show up on every topo that records any buildings. (The larger is a thousand feet long.) What they don't show, nor any other image, is anything else there. It's just another in a long series of shipping points, not a town.

- Delete - Note to any closer tempted to relist: look at the many, many, many other AFDs that are related to the same author using the same sources (GNIS/Durham - GNIS is a bad source, Durham might be a good source but the person who created these articles is simply ignoring how Durham describes them, e.g., listing sidings and summits as settlements) to create WP:GEOLAND failing articles during the same period in 2009 and ask whether this really needs another week. These articles are clearly in WP:TNT territory. FOARP (talk) 12:42, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy delete Mass-producer negligently misrepresented the source: Durham says "locality: 3.25 miles north-northwest of Dunnigan along Southern Pacific Railroad", not that it is a notable community or settlement, as is obvious on the maps. Reywas92Talk 00:14, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
