Southern Pacific 4451

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

This is an unremarkable SD9 that fails GNG by a mile. It is sourced exclusively to self-published railfan sites and one museum which at one point owned the locomotive. Much of this article is just a duplication of Southern Pacific 4450 which I have also nominated for deletion. "They were favorites of railfans and usually worked together" does not confer notability.

 * Comment This and the 4451 could be a brief mention in the main article about the locomotive type themselves, nothing notable about these two. Leaning delete. Oaktree b (talk) 20:16, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
