 * Symbol voting keep.svg Many details, on excellent sources, offline sources accepted AGF. No copyvio found. I think the original hook could be said about many projects and is not specific to this station, therefore I like ALT1 much better. I guess we can drop Washington, - for those who really don't know where Seattle is, it might be more confusing than helpful. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:48, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
