 * Comment This seems locally notable, so I think it depends whether you see this as a park or an organization (does WP:AUD apply). https://www.airdriecityview.com/community/full-steam-ahead-for-iron-horse-parks-2023-season-6973978 https://www.discoverairdrie.com/articles/all-aboard-for-the-reopening-of-iron-horse-park https://dailyhive.com/calgary/vacation-europe-calgary https://airdrielife.com/lifenow/iron-horse-park-on-track-great-for-2021-season/ ~ A412  talk! 20:11, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep - Wikipedia is full of articles about locally notable attractions. Please see Category:Lists of museums in the United States by state or territory and others. And FYI, I've edited hundreds of such articles on Wikipedia.  Regarding sourcing, that which you see as travel blogs, are often not blogs but how museums etc. are written about. I added a couple of sources and info, so hope that helps. — Maile  (talk) 00:47, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge into Airdrie, Alberta. This is a tricky one. I abandoned an AfC draft on a theme park a few months ago that was in a similar situation: that theme park was much larger (20+ attractions), but very few online sources were available. In that draft, as in this article, I see two issues: one is notability; the other is coverage. Putting notability aside, I'm not seeing the coverage question adequately satisfied here.  Do the available reliable sources say that much, beyond run-of-the-mill coverage like opening hours, to justify a standalone article?  To avoid an unsatisfying WP:PERMASTUB, I think the current contents of the article can be adequately summarised into three or four well-cited sentences on the settlement page (that is, Airdrie, Alberta). We can then hope that one day, there will be enough coverage for an editor to recreate the article.  And then we can talk about whether local attractions are notable or not.

 * Keep Iron Horse Park Airdrie has just enough notability to merit an article. TH1980 (talk) 01:09, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
