 * Redirect to New Katni Junction railway station. What isn't | a copyvio is already covered at New Katni Junction railway station. No evidence of independent notability outside of as a part of that station. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 14:31, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to New Katni Junction railway station. Based on the online English language sources I've been able to find, this is not independently notable. All the detailed information I can find is either not independent or not reliable. Thryduulf (talk) 17:38, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep:. There are multiple entries for similar articles in Category:Railway depots in India and a further 27 entries in Category:Electric railway depots in India. These articles all cite loco rosters for references; and shed allocation rosters by Indian Railways. Redirecting to a station is not an option, as the depots are usually a distance from the stations. --Whiteguru (talk) 00:51, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, some sheds have articles because some are notable and some haven't been put to the test yet. Others have been deleted at AfD because they weren't notable. Each one should be judged on their own merits. Fram (talk) 08:11, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment: There's at least a handful of these nominated, more to come. In general while a locomotive works (where railway stock is designed and built - and maybe rebuilt) is likely to be (at least traditionally) notable, a locomotive maintenance shed is not.  If an article is a couple of lines of existence prose with an excuse to hang pictures of a locomotives (who have their own article) then its not suitable for a standalone article.  Often historic information will be the key; otherwise think of redirects and merges; sometimes to the settlement; perhaps a new article containing information about all the sheds on a line.  I confess to being unfamiliar with New Katni but to take an example from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Diesel Loco Shed, Pune (I know more about Pune) I have little hesitation that an article entitled Pune locomotive sheds covering sheds from the steam days to present would likely be relative easily notable.  Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 05:12, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
