All are redundant to {{ infobox road}} and the display output can be handled by that single template. Doing so will unite the appearance with the four types of highway articles. As well, some of the Indian highway articles can't use one of these templates because they don't support segmented routes, but infobox road does.

Too wide to fit in an infobox, duplicative with the pseudo-route map in City Terminal Zone (the gray bars on the side). Also, this is really a collection of rail lines lumped together solely for customer identification by the railroad. Each line operations-wise has its own RDT. Train2104 ( talk) 02:45, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- Keep. The grey bars on the latter are nowhere near as clear. This seems like a regular rail map, as used on thousands of articles. Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 13:39, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- Query what article used this template? I can't fully comment without knowing the context in which it was used since it's not redundant. Imzadi 1979 → 03:50, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- City Terminal Zone was supposed to use this template, but it was never put into the article. — Train2104 ( talk · contribs) 10:00, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
- Actually, it was put into City Terminal Zone on February 5, 2010, but was removed by User:Oknazevad, who is now arguing for deletion of this template. -- Bsherr ( talk) 21:36, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
- Undecided - Just for an experiment, I decided to add the template to the article it was intended for. It's not as wide as you might think, but it does create a huge gap for the station listings. Train2014 does have a valid argument about what the City Terminal Zone really is, but Andy is also right about the need for a map. ---- DanTD ( talk) 03:00, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - the City Terminal Zone is not a rail line, it is a collective term for services on portions of three separate, distinct lines, each of which already have separate articles with their own diagrams. This diagram is duplicative of those, has numerous quality issues (though it has gotten better), and doesn't really physically fit the page layout. It's pretty much unneeded. oknazevad ( talk) 04:07, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Keep- I adjusted the template to center it instead of align it to the right, and I actually think it looks quite good on the article. It's certainly much more instructive and visual than the pseudomap. Now that it's been added to the article and better formatted for it, I think it surely ought to be kept. -- Bsherr ( talk) 17:05, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
- I had a conversation with User:Oknazevad on Talk:City Terminal Zone. Since the presence of the template on the article page is referred to in this TfD, I reverted Oknazevad's removal of the template from the article until this TfD is resolved. I think this is the fairest solution. Oknazevad asserts that the template is redundant with the maps on the other line pages. I asked whether perhaps the entire article is redundant to the line articles, but Oknazevad explained that City Terminal Zone is worthy of being a separate article. If so, the template is actually less redundant than the pseudo line map table. I would suggest that the template be kept and the table actually be deleted from the article. -- Bsherr ( talk) 21:48, 14 August 2010 (UTC)
- Please don't presume to speak for me. I can speak for myself, thank you. And others can read what I have written at the other conversation which you've linked. I've given my reasons I believe this template is unneeded. If I felt the need to say more here I would have.

If I misrepresented you, I am sorry, and please feel free to correct me. -- Bsherr ( talk) 05:58, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
- Delete - I've added an image which serves the same or better purpose than the template. -- Bsherr ( talk) 15:32, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
- I have decided to withdraw this nomination. This argument over deletion and the potential merging of
City Terminal Zone into other articles is getting a bit out of hand. I will make some changes to the template, such as removing the subway and collapsing it. —
