Delete. The article is not notifiable enough to be on wikipedia, contains one reference and is less than one line long Robin09999 (talk) 16:03, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- Railways are usually regarded as notable ("notifiable"??), it's just that this one happens to be in Mexico. (How many English WP editors live in Mexico?) Such a short article should be tagged for expansion by knowledgeable editors rather than deleted. The website contains plenty of information (if you can read the language!) and would be a very good starting point. Looking at this page which shows the routes operated, the railway covers a significant area (1/10th area of Mexico?) and number of routes (5 + several branch lines). -- EdJogg (talk) 16:38, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as a common carrier shortline railroad. Here are a few English sources. --NE2 23:24, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep This is a company formed when the Ferrocarriles Nacionales de Mexico was privatised between 1997 and 1999 and from the map operates a number of lines in a number of Mexican states. Notable anyway, and NE2 has found English sources for expansion. I've just slightly expanded the article and added a reference I found. Edgepedia (talk) 06:27, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as for other operating railroads. DGG ( talk ) 18:04, 17 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
