Pre-GA notes

{{ping|Trainsandotherthings}} While you've done some great work on this article so far, I don't think it's ready for GA. Given that the company only ever operated a single line, the article should cover the whole history of the line, not just the corporate history. I would recommend adding the following to reach GA quality and meet criteria 3a (broad in coverage):

List of passenger stations, cited to 1912 or 1915 timetables
Brief description of the route (possibly just a few sentences before the station list), with a map if possible. [https://archives.lib.uconn.edu/islandora/object/20002%3AMSS19980378 1915 valuation maps] may be useful to source any details. I will try to add a KML file within the next few days.
Full history of service (passenger and freight) on the line, including the West River Branch built in 1892
History of abandonment, including any documented remains

I'm happy to help with any of those items if you need. Note that the [http://www.tylercitystation.info/ Tyler City Station] site has an exhaustively researched and cited history of the line. Because of the completeness of the citations, I consider it a reliable enough source for GA; in many cases it is also possible to verify directly from the listed sources.

:Yeah, that's on me that I didn't get this all the way to the level I normally do. I was lazy and nominated it for GA before it was really ready, knowing that the backlog is so long it would be a while before it gets picked up. I was going to work on it but got distracted by my FAC. I'm going to expand this article soon, hopefully today, and get it to something really ready for GAN.

::{{re|Pi.1415926535}} I've made some improvements now. Do you have one of those station listings you could add to this article? I know you usually are able to find timetables. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 14:34, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
