A rail siding created to serve a power plant. The various buildings that appear on the other side of the track prove to be an assortment of various agricultural establishments, not a town. Mangoe (talk) 03:02, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: The railway spur has definitely been lifted and removed as the references show. It is now a substation, with no general notability. --Whiteguru (talk) 09:22, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete No post office. I believe that people lived there, but that this is a non-notable location. The caption says "the operators' cottages in the background." I tried to find the original source of the photo, but was unable to find it on GBooks or archive.org. Searching newspapers.com for "kilowatt siding" yields a three of trivial articles about a baseball team. [1] states that there was a baseball team from Kilowatt Siding, but those could have been workers, not residents. I copied one of the refs to the Path 15 article, which is where this article could be redirected to if someone wanted to make the case for it. Cxbrx (talk) 19:17, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - I looked into this article's notability a couple days ago. From what I could find, this appears to have just been a short-lived work camp for plant workers. I don't think WP:GEOLAND is met. Hog Farm Talk 21:27, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete The location lacks notability due to its minor importance and lack of any notable events taking place here.TH1980 (talk) 03:46, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
