I speedied this before in a less cogent form, and it's back, this time with a marginal assertion of notability. Does not meet WP:CORP in my opinion. Chick Bowen 03:02, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Railway Mission has not been good at promoting itself over the years. But has begun to do so. Individual chaplains are often sited but this has not always highlighted the Railway Mission. See Links and read below and what they are about. Thanks. I wanted to add more about the mission but have been trying to work out how to add pictures. I hope that rather than just deleteing this you could help put things right.

  • If mention of the chaplains and organisation they work for by the internationally recognised media does not verify the organisation what would. The Archive for the Railway Mission is held in the National Rail Museum in York, England. The Mission is also linked to from the National Rail Enquiries web site [1]. (although at this time the Railway Mission Home site is not much Cop) How else can I verify the organisation? Even their calendars that are given away free are sold on ebay! And thanks for puting in the logo, I could only get it onto a seporate page as you know. I also want, if the page remains and I can get it right, pictures from ufton nervet train crash and 7-7, but who knows.
