[edit] Why was this page moved?
Kind of dittoing my comments on Talk:Milwaukee Road, "Soo Line" is probably a more common name for this railway. Following Wikipedia standard, this page should probably be moved back. Perhaps it's less of an issue with this railroad than that one, though... —User:Mulad (talk) 18:02, Jan 11, 2005 (UTC)
- I just noticed that the todolist didn't get moved, so I've fixed that. I would agree that the page should be moved back to Soo Line as that's the more common name for the company (all of the company's rolling stock uses "Soo Line" going back no less than 50 years, and probably longer if we researched it further). Whatever name the article takes, the todolist needs to be migrated with it. slambo 13:56, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)
Where does the name come from? It seems very interesting to me. Kd5mdk 08:09, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- "Soo Line" is a shortened version of the name because "Sault" is pronounced as "Soo". slambo 13:56, Apr 12, 2005 (UTC)
Bah, I didn't realize that the company has actually been known as the Soo Line Railroad since 1960. As that redirect has history, I have listed it at Wikipedia:Requested moves. The category should also be moved; let's discuss that here too rather than on WP:CFD. --SPUI (talk) 07:15, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
- Since I created the article as Soo Line originally (and as stated above), I would support such a move; and as an admin, I can make the move as it is needed. slambo 10:56, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
- I'm assuming you mean you'd support a move to Soo Line Railroad rather than Soo Line (as implied by your edit summary). --SPUI (talk) 14:54, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
- Doh! Yes. I gotta stop typing when I'm half asleep. B-) slambo 12:22, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

- The category covering this main article page has been nominated for renaming to Cat:Soo Line Railroad, and has passed consensus to rename. You can see the archived discussion here. It would seem logical to consider that discussion and consider with the go ahead of the proposed move. ∞Who?¿? 03:35, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
I would've thought it'd be pronounced like "sole". 67.188.172.165 22:32, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
- Heh, yeah. Before I moved to Wisconsin, I always thought it would be more like "salt". Now I know better. B-) Slambo (Speak) 00:01, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
