Yet another siding. There was a schoolhouse here (now abandoned) and some trackside structures (presumably a station and outbuildings, now gone) and that's it, except for the Jack Rabbit Trading Post, whose website doesn't mention Manila. Searching is a bear due to many further opportunities for clickbait and by a visit of the battleship Arizona to the Philippines at some point,, so it's possible I've missed something.

- Keep There was a post office and school district (which led to a protracted court case). By the 1940s there was still a collection of houses there, although this guide is quite dismissive of the opportunities for motorists. It wasn't only railroad workers who lived there. Seems like a legally recognized populated place to me.---- Pontificalibus 11:55, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
- OK, will withdraw this one. Mangoe ( talk) 15:13, 4 March 2020 (UTC)
- I'm still not entirely convinced that the railroad worker camp and associated facilities meet our notability standards, but it's not a total nothingburger like the named sidings we've been seeing. Regarding the ranch headquarters, it's just as likely that they were using the Manila name as a general landmark for the nearby ranch. – dlthewave ☎ 19:47, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
- Keep per the evidence presented by Pontificalibus. Apparently people lived there Lightburst ( talk) 20:37, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
