Keep Like many articles on trains, this is in a sorry state and sorely needs both references and a rewrite. However, there's plenty of SIGCOV to justify keeping the article. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 16:05, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Evidently notable given the sources shared above. NemesisAT (talk) 16:06, 19 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep quite notable; Wikipedia:NOIMPROVEMENT is not a reason to delete. There are many sources, and it is a railway topic that is definite notable due to the worldwide usage. Gorden 2211 (talk) 09:46, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
