Searching, once you weed out all the grapes and wine, shows this as a rail location. Well. What the topos show is a station which at some point in the late 1920s was replaced by a substantial yard, most of which is still there. At this point the label wanders around the map, so that for a while it labels what turns out to be a small industrial area, but then moves NW to the west end of the yard leads. I could not determine the name of the yard, though I did find an ICC ruling referring to its construction. At any rate, it's not a community and not a notable rail location.

Delete just because a name was in some way applied to a location does not make the location automatically notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:02, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
