Name Change, back to Pinsly

I have no clue what to do; with returning the page back to the new name.

An older page currently exists with the current name, Pinsly Railroad Company.

I think you need to explain this a bit more. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 14:52, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

My understanding of the situation is that the original Pinsly Railroad Company was effectively defunct after selling its last railroad to Gulf & Atlantic Railways last year (our article is outdated). Gulf & Atlantic Railways has now rebranded itself as Pinsly Railroad Company. No obvious common name as yet and we certainly shouldn't merge the articles. I suggest the following:

• Pinsly Railroad Company moves to Pinsly Railroad Company (1938–2023)
• Gulf & Atlantic Railways moves to Pinsly Railroad Company (2024)
• Pinsly Railroad Company becomes a disambiguation page

Thank you, I was thinking something like that as well. Yeahimaboss413 (talk) 01:54, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

• Gulf & Atlantic Railways → Pinsly Railroad Company (2024)
• Pinsly Railroad Company → Pinsly Railroad Company (1938–2023)

– Although sources explicitly saying such are lacking, the original Pinsly Railroad Company was defunct after selling its last shortline to Gulf & Atlantic Railways in 2023. Gulf & Atlantic Railways has now renamed itself Pinsly Railroad Company. This is a separate company with a separate history, so a merge is not appropriate. Neither topic is the obvious WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Post-move, Pinsly Railroad Company should be a disambiguation page.
