This is not a community: it is a rail yard and at one time, a station, sitting in the middle of extremely urbanized greater LA just east of Alhambra. I have not been able to determine when the yard was built or when the name was applied to the station/yard, but I can find no reference to it as a town or even as a locale. We have a lot more experience with examining these rail locations than on the last discussion, and a better insight into GNIS's location classification flaws. Mangoe (talk) 04:27, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete - Another example of GNIS's unreliability when it comes to identifying communities. This is (or was) a railroad facility and not a community or settlement. There is no evidence that it passes basic notability guidelines. Glendoremus (talk) 04:43, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Speedy delete Mass-produced junk that's had false information for the last decade. Calliopejen1 had it right a couple years ago. Good news Yilloslime. WP:GNIS listings do not make a place notable. Reywas92Talk 06:21, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
- Delete per my last nomination and comments there. Calliopejen1 (talk) 06:34, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
