WP:NOTNEWS. This story doesn't appear particularly notable, as it was two out-of-service trains that collided at low speed resulting in non-life-threatening injuries. Might be worth a blurb in the SEPTA article at best, but even that is questionable. Ahecht ( TALK

  • Delete non notable incident. Sir Joseph (talk) 16:29, 21 February 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per nom. The sole source does say the operator was in critical condition, but even a death wouldn't raise this accident to notability. Clarityfiend ( talk) 02:39, 22 February 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete per nomination. Trivial incident which will receive WP:ROUTINE coverage and nothing more. Mackensen (talk) 11:45, 22 February 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete concur with nom. The news article reference on which this article is based is only eight sentences total. Trivial incident. MB 05:01, 24 February 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - can be adequately covered by an entry in the relevant list of rail accidents. Mjroots ( talk) 22:01, 24 February 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete. No fatalities, the one ref is just a few sentences and I suspect there won't be a lot of in-depth refs coming along, so doesn't meet WP:GNG and probably can't. Herostratus ( talk) 14:35, 26 February 2017 (UTC) reply
  • Delete - as per above. CAPTAIN RAJU (✉) 19:09, 28 February 2017 (UTC) reply
