Likely not notable (WP:NGEO), may be a hoax. Only thing I could find in GNIS was a ditch. https://edits.nationalmap.gov/apps/gaz-domestic/public/search/names/55e239de-f2fe-5c77-9723-31b9006d77df/summary wizzito | say hello! 07:35, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nomination. Jeffrey Beall (talk) 12:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC).[reply]
  • Delete it does appear to have been a Union Pacific Statio; however, I cannot truly verify this as the book that appears to have this content, "Official Freight Shippers Guide and Directory of Union Pacific Railroad" is not digitized and not, to the best of my knowledge, available in any form online. In fact, the nearest library to me which has this book is over 500 miles (800 km) away, having said that, even if it was a train station that is abandoned and is only mentioned in a railroad directory, it is certainly not notable under WP:GEOLAND. snood1205(Say Hi!

  • delete I found this 1906 gazetteer [1] which also describes it as a "station in Weld County on Union Pacific Railroad". Barring better documentation it appears to fail to meet our standards. Mangoe (talk) 14:09, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - All sources point to this being nothing more than a railroad station siding, nowhere close to GNG-level coverage. –dlthewave 17:15, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
