As evidence of EIKON International being a company related to Edwards Railcar, I submit the following 4 pieces of evidence:

1) Online announcement of new "Edwards" railcar, announced by "Steve Torrico, Pres. Edwards Rail Car Co."[1] showing several pictures of said car, lettered MPT and M-100 on car ends.

2) Index page of EIKON International website, showing picture of that same railcar.[2] Notice lettering on car ends.

3) photo gallery of EIKON International website,[3] showing at least 4 pictures of that same railcar, as well as the Private car "The Wisconsin" (car mentioned in this article as well).

4) Edwards Railcar webpage, [4], describing restoration work done on "The Wisconsin".

This evidence submitted in order to support the addition of EIKON International as a related company in this article. Wuhwuzdat (talk) 20:44, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The above looks like Original Research to me. Wikipedia doesn't allow that - see WP:NOR. I take no position on the subject of this research; namely whether "Edwards Rail Car" and "EIKON International" are the same entity. I'm merely saying that as original research, such a claim does not belong here until it's discussed in primary or secondary media and then referenced.
