List of stock used by Swiss Federal Railways
Unencyclopedic. I can see lists of the different kinds of railroad stock and even which ones are used by what railways around the world, but an inventory doesn't seem to me to belong here. JeffW 22:25, 23 March 2006 (UTC)


 * keep (I created that article). I cannot find any good reason to delete it in Deletion policy. The only point that could apply is in WP:NOT ("7. Directories, directory entries, or a resource for conducting business. [...]"). But since there are many other lists in Wikipedia, I can't find much reason why this one should be bad. Well, it has way more information than most other lists - I can remove that information (then it would be a list like many others), but I don't see why that should make it more encyclopedic. By the way, one reason why that list contains that much information: Many of the locomotives listed there won't get a dedicated article in the foreseeable future (currently only very few have), so this way the most important data about them is nevertheless available. --Kabelleger 22:29, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * keep. Eminently encyclopedic. -- RHaworth 22:41, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Not the usual indiscriminate listcruft. Of definite interest to railroad-aholics.  Slowmover 22:52, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep. Information on rolling stock is important for the coverage of the Swiss railways. Sjakkalle (Check!)  07:31, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think it belongs to Wiki and has potential for improvement. AntOnTrack 10:17, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
