Per WP:NTRAINSTATION; fails WP:GNG. It's not even a building, just a stop on request. The timetable is not a sufficient reference and there are no others. FromCzech (talk) 12:09, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Vilémov (Děčín District) in a "transportation" section, seems pretty straightforward. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 12:24, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. The station building is just an unstaffed shelter. I would guess, though, that when the line opened in 1904, there was a bigger building with at least one employee and possibly several. Perhaps the original building was damaged by fire or military action, or perhaps the railway company just let the building deteriorate. Even if a station is only a shelter or a signpost, there's a good chance that it was once a staffed building. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 15:45, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That's pure speculation and unhelpful. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 16:10, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it's speculation, and that's why I didn't !vote keep at this point. I was pointing out a possible path of research for someone with access to offline or paywalled sources. The topic of a station covers not only its present configuration but how it existed in the past. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 16:21, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Coverage sufficient to meet WP:GNG. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:09, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Vilémov (Děčín District) - Looking on Google Earth the shelter doesn't appear to have existed in 2000 so unless the "station" was at a different location then the shelter is new, Anyway fails GNG (can't find anything under it's Czech name), sources in the article aren't reliable sources - just a timetable and what seems to be personal blogs). –Davey2010^Talk 17:50, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Vilémov (Děčín District)#Transport. Kudos to Eastmain for putting in the sources. The station apparently dates back to 1904 when the line was constructed and was called Wölmsdorf, as was the village. I've checked what's on German Wikipedia and didn't find a separate article for the station. It is noted as a stopping point on the Rumburk-Sebnitz railway line. The modern shelter looks to have replaced a bigger structure sometime between 2012 and 2019 per Google Streetview. Haven't found sources sufficient to establish notability for the station therefore as an alternative to deletion suggest merging to the village the station serves. An official railway timetable helps prove the station exists but doesn't satisfy GNG. Rupples (talk) 00:55, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
