Sub-brand for set of services, the details for which would be better merged into the Northern Rail article; not notable in its own right in my view (Northern don't seem to refer to these services as 'Northern Electrics' in their own communications, though not sure if they did when first launched).

 * I don't see an argument being made here for deletion. The content is significant, sourceable, and relevant to Northern Rail.  Merger may well be warranted but this doesn't appear to belong at AfD.  I suggest a speedy close and instead discuss merger on the article talk page. See WP:SKCRIT #1. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:05, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Happy with that, and apologies. I suggested it here as a lot of the content within the article (though not all) isn't notable in any case, and was proposing to merge the remainder. Happy to take the merge discussion back to the article talk page, and consequently withdraw this AfD nomination, if that is the consensus. Mike1901 (talk) 16:13, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
