Martin, Washington: Almost nothing in the article is about the "town" of Martin, because there isn't anything to say: It was a minor railroad maintenance point that later had a station for a nearby ski area.   Of all the cited sources, only reference 14 comes close to substantial coverage; many sources don't mention Martin at all.   I couldn't find any additional sources that aren't already cited, and none are more than trivial mentions (e.g. photos of trains taken at Martin).   I suggest a delete; I could also live with a merge of relevant content to Stampede Pass , Northern Pacific Railroad , or Meany Lodge (from which much of this article's content seems to have been copied).

The newspaper record supports this is a train station near Stampede pass that had good ski properties.  But there was never a town there.  The nearest towns were Easton and Weston.  I don't however understand why there was a siding and a station there.  Refueling, or maintenance maybe?  Here are news clips that are helpful in understanding the place.  Describes it as remotest place in county.  [27] Stranded Skies spend the night in Meany hut.

Eastmain ( talk • contribs ) 21:58, 20 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Your assumption that some workers lived is factually incorrect, as my second source makes it clear there were no overnight facilities at the site.  Several, other sources I read make it clear it is miles from the nearest and very remote.

There's enough here for an article, but I think the ski dome is a better target.

Thanks, Toadette Edit!  18:07, 27 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to Martin Ski Dome , nothing showing this meets GNG or NGEO.  // Timothy :: talk 17:57, 29 April 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Redirect to Martin Ski Dome .  This page does not meet GEOLAND and would be a delete for me, but it is just about a plausible search term for the proposed target.
