 * Comment: This museum was previously known as Arthur Child Heritage Museum; a search for sources using that name should be conducted before deletion. I have found mention of this museum in In Search of the Grand Trunk: Ghost Rail Lines in Ontario by Ron Brown (pages 93 and footnote on page 226) Mind  matrix  14:40, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I took your advice and I'm still not seeing any notability. That book only has two sentences about the museum. SL93 (talk) 14:44, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep. wp:ITSAMUSEUM, to which I contributed, states the general case for museums and other public attractions which readers expect to be covered in Wikipedia and which have lots of general coverage. For example, news coverage of new exhibits, events, such as coverage of 2014 new "wheelhouse" exhibit (including this "Thousand Islands Life.com" coverage).  This one's building is a recently constructed but Victorian hotel-style building on site of the main railroad station for the Thousand Islands Railway.  See photo at here in TripAdvisor's review.  It is termed #3 of Ganonoque's attractions by TripAdvisor.  The building is owned by the Town of Gananoque;  the museum is operated by a charitable non-profit. --Doncram (talk) 22:15, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
