Fails WP:MUSIC, WP:N, and WP:RS. The sources given are not third party sources. Sources like "The Indie Magazine" and other fanzines are not notable. Possible COI here, but that's only a possibility. Although the band is signed to a notable label, they have not released anything on that label so they still fail WP:MUSIC. Delete Undead Warrior (talk) 15:42, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. There seems to be some confusion about the sources. Losing Today (subtitled The Indie Music Magazine) appears to be a commercially-published magazine, not a fanzine, so it should count as a reliable source. I'm not sure about the others. --Eastmain (talk) 16:07, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment if kept rename to Railcars (band), as this is clearly not primary meaning. "Railcars" should redirect to Railcar 70.51.9.124 (talk) 05:58, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Even if the indie magazine was a reliable source, WP:RS says to require MULTIPLE reliable sources. This fails WP:RS. Undead Warrior (talk) 00:08, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. In addition to the several sources already referenced, the band has received coverage from SPIN ([1]), amongst others [2], [3], [4]. --Michig (talk) 13:49, 14 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Appears to have been covered in a variety of independant sources. Edward321 (talk) 05:20, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
