Railroad cut misidentified by GNIS as a community and blindly copied into wikipedia by the creator, who evidently didn't consider looking at other sources. Topographic maps show a railroad feature with no buildings nearby. See this for confirmation that it's a railroad cut. As a railroad cut, it fails WP:GEOLAND. There's some Google books mentions, but majority of them seem to be just using Walche Cut (also spelled Walche's Cut) as a landmark, not directly discussing this cut. Looks to fail WP:GNG as a result. Hog Farm Bacon 17:48, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
