Google completely drops the searching ball on this one: for one thing, it is determined to put Elkhart in the results no matter how hard you try to exclude it. What I see in the aerials and topos is most likely a rail point, but I haven't been able to confirm anything. There's no sign of anything one might call a tow, as the cluster of buildings shown on the topos turns out to be a farm. So I can't see keeping this. Mangoe ( talk) 03:39, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

- Delete - 1942 topo shows an "Elk Station" along the railroad tracks at this location which disappears sometime before 1965. It must not have been a very important stop; a newspaper search restricted to Martinsville only returned coverage of the animal. – dlthewave ☎ 12:50, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
