The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
Oppose Articles about railway companies are given the name of the company, omitting the word "company" itself. An undertaking was created; it made its plans which were submitted to Parliament; which approved them by the passing of the Garve and Ullapool Railway Act, 1890 (53 & 54 Victoria c. ccxxxiii) on 14 August that year (see
"Westminster, August 14, 1890". The London Gazette. No. 26079. 15 August 1890. p. 4435.); as a direct consequence of which the Garve and Ullapool Railway Company was
incorporated. The fact that the new company failed to raise the necessary money and so was unable to commence construction does not change the name of the railway. --

Unconvinced As Redrose64 has stated, a company was set up to promote, build and run the proposed railway. Negotiations with other Railway Companies then took place, but failed to reach any actual commitments for financing. There was a further proposal in 1918/1919 to build the railway-line, to the exact plan of the original proposal, this time using Government finance to construct a light railway, but again this came to nothing. (More detail on the later proposal will shortly be incorporated into this article). So, although the railway was never built, it was proposed more than once (1890, 1896, 1918 and possibly again in 1945) - and I do not think we should re-title to Garve and Ullapool Proposals? - and it had a bone fide company to go with it.
