No indication this was a notable settlement, 1907 map has nothing but a name next to the railroad https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/ht-bin/tv_browse.pl?id=1c6fd750f09a49579337f04f012ceff1 Reywas92 Talk 20:43, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

- Delete Non-notable waypoint on the railroad. The Martys were a prominent Yolo County family 100 years ago (per newspaper search); the spot was probably just named for the landowner. Not a "settlement" by any information I can find. WeirdNAnnoyed ( talk) 21:29, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
- No "probably" about it. This is Antone Marty's cattle feed railroad stop. It's in T.J. Gregory's History of Yolo County, California. But Antone Marty is the actual subject of the History. The Arcadia book Anglicizes him as Tony Marty. Uncle G ( talk) 02:15, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

- Move, I think this is another good opportunity for good. Move the article to new name appropriate for the Marty's or their ranch and this place then becomes mentioned there. While this would be more work, it's preferable to just deleting. In any case this is a train station in yolo county, it is not a city in yolo county. QED the title/url location is misleading. So at minimum it needs a name change or deletion. I support either. Because if anybody ever creates the article on the Marty's, then the train station will likely be mentioned anyway.

Relisting comment: Final relist. If you seek this article to be moved, redirected or merged, you have to specify the target article or your proposal will have much less weight. Closers shouldn't be guessing what you want.

- Delete Uncle G has accurately stated what this location actually was -- a railway whistle stop. In its description of the Marty ranch, History of Yolo County, California says:
shipping facilities are provided by the Marty station on the new Sacramento and Woodland electric railroad, a switch on the ranch affording direct communcation
1. The brevity of the current article doesn't really give anyone a leg up on writing an article about Antone Marty, so I don't think a move is appropriate. Jfire ( talk) 05:56, 31 December 2023 (UTC) - Delete: Nothing to indicate this was ever any sort of "settlement"; this was the name for a railway whistle stop for a nearby farm, not a "settlement" of any kind per User:Uncle G.
