Beaufort railway station, New Jersey

A possible hoax, this article has been tagged for notability since 2008. I was unable to find any evidence of this railway station's existence even after extensive searches in both google books and newspapers.com. The closest I could find was a mention on the Whippany Railway Museum website that a station may have existed on Beaufort Avenue Winner 42 Talk to me!  14:47, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete - as no notability whatsoever. It's not a hoax (reference here), but unless Jimmy Hoffa is buried there, will never meet GNG. —Мандичка YO 😜 16:50, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - Not a hoax. Was a real station and even though the station closed in the early 20th Century, there still is easily-found coverage online.  Given it hasn't existed in over 75 years, there is probably more not published online.--Oakshade (talk) 15:46, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep. Does appear to have existed and all railway stations are kept. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:14, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep - Like any pre 1960s related articles leniency is usually given as sources are next to none impossible to find on them and this is no different - I'd imagine there were newspaper stories on it so will have to go with Keep. – Davey 2010 Talk 18:56, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
