Kylemore railway station

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Proposed/non-existent railway station. Subject doesn't exist and may never exist. The subject has never been the topic of any significant coverage. The sources which support the text (and the only sources I can find after significant searches) include this PowerPoint presentation (where the text reads "Potential Station at Kylemore" and nothing else), this politician's press release (where again we have four words "new station at Kylemore"), this news story (again where the subject is barely mentioned in passing), and this webpage/article (where the subject is discussed in a little more depth, but mainly/only to confirm that the subject does not exist beyond a notional concept and is not planned or funded as part of ANY transport dev project). The subject falls well below any reasonable WP:SIGCOV threshold. In a "flip" of the WP:EXIST essay, the scant sources just confirm that the subject DOESN'T exist. And do not support notability.

 * Merge or Redirect to Dublin Suburban Rail which is the line the proposed station would be on. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 18:15, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - There should not be articles on proposed things which will probably never happen. Spleodrach (talk) 22:35, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete - Probably TOOSOON until a brick gets laid. It general there's a lot of issues with Irish rail articles with WP:CRYSTAL, with speculative ideas given too much weight per UNDUE.  While there might be a case for mentioning elsewhere it would be UNDUE Dublin Suburban Rail as it stands at the moment.  There not fundamnetallly an issue with it being mentioned somewhere but usually the result in WP:UNDUE. Djm-leighpark (talk) 03:44, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to a section of the system or line article about proposed stations. It doesn't seem notable enough for a standalone article, but there is sufficient encyclopaedic information that mention is very much DUE somewhere. Thryduulf (talk) 14:36, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
 * In general I've no real objection to the content existing on something like 21st Century rail infrastructure proposals in Ireland or similar. As soon as the redirect exists it will probably be abused onto route maps.  But such at article likely WikiProject level discussions.  I don't have bandwidth to do it.
