Chicago SouthShore and South Bend Railroad → Chicago South Shore and South Bend Railroad – The unspaced version is not supported by the cited sources and external links, which include the space in South Shore. Dicklyon (talk) 06:35, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I've never seen the camel-case version and can find no sources to support it. Deor (talk) 21:18, 25 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

CamelCase[edit]

Per the above, I don't disagree with the move but there are various filings with the Surface Transportation Board that use the camel case form. If it's just a styling then that's no big deal; if the corporate form actually changed with the Anacostia purchase then that might be something. Mackensen (talk) 03:43, 29 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Formal request has been received to merge: The Chicago Lake Shore and South Bend Railway into Chicago South Shore and South Bend Railroad; dated: November 2022. Proposer's Rationale: Chicago, Lake Shore and South Bend Railway" is just the pre-1924 corporate identity of the "Chicago South Shore and South Bend Railroad" since 1925. There was a bankruptcy in-between. Thus this should all just be covered in the corporate history of the Chicago South Shore and South Bend Railroad article. Discuss here. -- 65.92.246.191 (talk) 23:33, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support I support my own proposal, I am the nominator -- 65.92.246.191 (talk) 23:33, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support I don't know how these two articles have existed in parallel for so long. - UtherSRG (talk) 00:20, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support Obvious case. There's unfortunately a number of similar forks on Wikipedia that need to be merged likewise. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 02:59, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support either the merge or a move to Chicago, Lake Shore and South Bend Railway. Either way, the article "the" has got to go. Lost on Belmont ^3200N_1000W (talk) 16:28, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
