Neuralia, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Yet another passing siding in the desert with nothing around. I don't know why GNIS sourced it to a large scale map, but it shows up quite clearly on the topos. Searching brings up the inevitable (for a rail spot) "Decisions of the Railroad Commission of California" and some reference to a soil, but nothing else. Not a notable spot.

 * Delete A search of JSTOR, Google Scholar, and GEOREF found many of the same items that Mangoe found, including the Neuralia Road in nearby California City, California and the Neuralia soil series. Nothing indicative either of a populated place / settlement; something notable enough to be included in Wikipedia; or combination of these was found although there are plenty of desert tortises, rattlesnakes, and Typic Haplargids. It is revealing that one report, Cultural Resources Inventory Report for the proposed Recurrent Energy Cinco Solar facility Project, Kern county, California by Stephanie Jow and Theodore G. Cooley (AECOM), 2014, considers a "...historic dirt road that extends from the Southern Pacific Railroad Railway at Neuralia into the Sierra Mountain Range..." to be a histroic archaeological site (CS-S-H-028, pages 56 and 64-65) and totally ignores Neuralia.
