Monsanto is a railroad spur/siding serving the Monsanto chemical plant on the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe railroad. I can't find anything that indicates it was ever a community. There doesn't seem to be any indication of notability. Glendoremus (talk) 23:03, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Does not pass WP:GEOLAND and fails WP:N, and I spent about 45 minutes looking through newspapers and other web sites and topo maps. Many only regurgitate WP's words. Best I can tell this area was named for the evil empire's headquarters. Lightburst (talk) 00:13, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • delete Aerials go back far enough to show when there was nothing here but the main rail line, and then Monsanto put up a plant next to it, and the railroad put in a siding, and they gave the siding a name. Clearly not a community, and not a notable rail location. Mangoe (talk) 20:09, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete All evidence points to this being a rail siding serving the Monsanto plant. –dlthewave 01:57, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
