Another rail station mistaken by GNIS as a community. Durham describes it as a locality on the Southern Pacific Railroad. This map shows it as a coal station where the old Empire Railroad crosses the SP rail. No evidence that it was ever a community of its own and otherwise not notable.

- Delete. no post office. WP:STATION applies. The Empire railroad is possibly notable, though as it was a corporation short line, it should probably just go on a list. The Black Diamond Mines book cited in the nom has a map that shows Empire and some hits for the railroad, but nothing about the station other than the map. Searching newspapers.com was tricky and did not yield anything. Cxbrx ( talk) 13:14, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
