 * Symbol confirmed.svg This is certainly long enough as it's a new GA. I see no issues with close paraphrasing or other copyright concerns with either the text or the images. The selected image is PD and would display fine as a FP thumb. Article is well-cited with reliable references. Verified the link for the hook. Is it possible to try to work in the fact that the railroad was "stealing" trains which were in the "mothball fleet"? Getting that in there somehow would make for a better hook, I think. This one is good to go! :) We hope (talk) 22:20, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
