Rock Creek, Plumas County, California

 * – ( View AfD View log )

A spot on the railroad and nothing more. Old topos show a very short siding; more recently that is gone, though the spot seems to still be used as a staging area for track maintenance. Mangoe (talk) 05:43, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete. No post office. Searching newspapers.com was tricky, I found  which states that someone near Chico died at Rock Creek.  GMaps shows that it is 44.2 miles from Chico to the location in question, so I'm not sure which Rock Creek the article is discussing.  Newspapers.com mentions a Rock Creek School district, but the Township and Range for that is elsewhere (39.8404088, -121.9745755), which is probably closer to the location of the death.  Looking at the 1957 Pulga Topo shows Rock Creek just south of the Rock Creek Power House and the Rock Creek Camp.  Rock Creek was probably never a significant station on the Western Pacific, the  1930 Western Pacific Map shows a station at Merlin, California, located just south of Rock Creek.  However, Google Books returns  and  which both state that there was a station at Rock Creek in Plumas County, but that it was not a post office.  My WP:OR is that there was a siding at Rock Creek that was used by PG&E while drilling the tunnel in the late 1940s and early 50s.  I found no evidence of their being a community at this location.  As no legal recognition has been found and very minor and at best trivial coverage has been found #1 and #2 of WP:GEOLAND are not fulfilled.  This is a non-notable location created in bulk by a user who has created many other non-notable stub articled and never returned to update them.  Cxbrx (talk) 21:55, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
