Mud Run Disaster → Mud Run disaster – No such proper name is found in sources, which call it "the disaster on the Lehigh Valley railroad", "the recent accident on the Lehigh Valley Railroad at Mud Run", and such in sentences. Headlines (usually title case) call it "Disaster at Mud Run", "Mud Run, PA Train Wreck, Oct 1888", "The Mud Run Disaster", "Disaster at Mud Run", and such. On the rare occasion that this term is used in a sentence, disaster is lowercase as in this book and this book and this book and a few more from over a hundred years ago. I find no evidence that anyone regards it as having become a proper name. Dicklyon (talk) 03:49, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

 * Support per Dicklyon. Sounds like whoever created the article was a little creative in naming it. Please, no original research. Tony   (talk)  11:09, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Support. Sounds like a fine informal/descriptive name of the topic in keeping with cited guidelines, given nobody has found a commonly used actual/formal one. DMacks (talk) 20:29, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
