[edit] Page merge proposed

Merge with Monon Railroad?-FZ 06:34, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Agreed. Since there was less on Monon Railroad, I've merged the data from there into here and made the other a redirect to here. slambo 10:54, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Page move proposed

Should rename this entry as Monon Railroad, as it is more complete, more correct, and more in line with naming of other railroads and their entries. The Monon entry should then be made into a disambiguation page pointing to Monon Railroad, Monon, Indiana, etc. David Koller 16:49, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Now that I think about it, you're right; such a move would be more in line with the naming standards for both Wikipedia:WikiProject Trains and Wikipedia in general. Since I did the original merge noted above, I'll do the move. slambo 17:17, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
Done. slambo 17:28, July 12, 2005 (UTC)
