407:- If there was a NSW navbox that included a link to 3801 it could, and should, be included here. Your other arguments along this line are largely irrelevant. What is relevant is that navboxes provide navigation between related articles, like categories do, and when they include links to articles, they should be included in those articles. Navboxes from outside one project are not under the control of another project. They exist across project lines. If an author of historical novels called John Smith wrote a series of books, and one of the books was about 3801, then it would be entirely appropriate for the navbox "Books by John Smith" to be included here. I really do not see you opposition to including a navbox here. --

fanfare, other locomotives don't even get a look in. 3801 has even been in the news when it isn't here. While train fanatics might know of individual locos, the general public doesn't. That's not the case with 3801, and that's why it is linked in the navbox. There is nothing justifying removal of the navbox from this article. Navboxes provide navigation between related articles, and the only criteria for inclusion of a navbox is that the article is linked in the navbox. That you

many years. You're probably too young to remember, but it used to take over 3 hours to get from Sydney to
Newcastle by car. In most cases it was easier to catch the flyer, so it was just as important, if not more so, than road transport, especially before the F3 freeway was started. Some were forced to use the train, because not everyone had a car. --

So if it is an icon, it is a NSW one, not Hunter specific. Its only connection was that it operated services in the area including a few headline

It's still an event that hasn't even happened, so it's not yet significant to the Hunter. As I said, notability alone is not justification for inclusion. As for 3801, unlike what you're attempting to add, it was actually significant, as it was the locomotive that used to pull the
Newcastle Flyer for

As the flagship of the nation’s biggest operator and the most widely travelled, 3801 is probably the most recognisable steam locomotive in
Australia, but this doesn't make it a Hunter icon. As it has been out of service since 2007, its presence wouldn't have been reported any time recently. Visiting

Not exactly the

need to determine that the event and street circuit are significant. Just because something exists doesn't mean it's included in this template. There are a lot more Hunter Region articles than are linked in this template, and many of them are far more significant than the articles that you linked.

is relevant as its beaching was a significant event in the region and its remains have been a feature for 40 years. 3801 was one of thousands of locomotives that operated and was overhauled in the region. Unlike others, it wasn't built in the region or ever based there. Much like the thousands of

While 3801 did have a connection with the Hunter region, tend to agree that it isn’t notable enough to be classified as an icon of the region. If it was dedicated to
Newcastle Flyer services, built or based in the region for much of its life in the area, then the case would be stronger, but that

As it was built and based in Sydney, it is more of an icon of that city. The Hunter was just one of many regions that it operated in. As the most travelled steam engine in
Australia, it is likely to be the most well known, and thus appear in the press more often than others. But just because it

is not justification for its removal. If there are other navboxes that include 3801, then they can be added too. Navboxes are not part of the normal content of the article that needs justification for inclusion. As long as the link is vaild, the navbox can be included. In this case, the link is

Well, that applies to HMAS Otway too, regardless of the fact that the outer casing, not the entire boat, is in
Holbrook. If you're going to argue that not being built in the region and not spending any of its career in Holbrok is irrelevant, then you have to accept that same argument for 3801.

has yet to be justified. Just because it appears periodically on local news services is not reason enough. If it was a product of the region or spent a large part of its career based there, then yes it would be worthy of inclusion, but it didn’t. All it did was haul trains into the region. No

steam locomotives often gain coverage from regional television networks and newspapers during visits, but that doesn't qualify them as icons of that region. 3642 was on the Sydney news yesterday, as it often is, because it was operating trips out of Central. Doesn't make it a Sydney icon.
490:
for many years, it's the only steam locomotive that Novocastrians actually know. The general class is not notable here, but 3801 certainly is. Your analogies are flawed. 3801 didn't just "dock" at Newcastle railway station. It spent quite a bit of time in the Hunter, unlike the

Being a "popular visitor" doesn't make it a Hunter icon. Using that analogy it could be classified as a Sydney, Goulburn, Dubbo, Melbourne, Perth or anywhere else it drew the crowds, icon. As the state's most well known steam locomotive it was bound to be the biggest drawcard.
259:
How can you say that 3801 is not a Hunter icon? Every time it is seen in the area it is on the TV news and the front page of local papers. It's about the only "train" that the general population knows and one of the reasons man visit Steamfest. Use of the navbox in the article

776:- As I've already pointed out, 3801 worked extensively in the Hunter Region for 62 years, starting a month after it was built. That is well beyond its operational lifetime. A very major overhaul, where it was virtually rebuilt from the ground up, was carried out here.
350:
3801 has a long association with New South Wales, not just the Hunter. You made the point that it gains significant media coverage; I noted that it would not have been through its presence in the last 9 years; hence its lack of action since 2007 was mentioned. The
