Herpoco was a railroad station serving the Hercules Powder Company. The associated company town, Hercules, California, took its name from the powder company and was never called Herpoco. Herpoco is not a community and does not meet basic notability criteria. Should be deleted or possibly redirected to either Hercules or Hercules Powder Company.

redirect to Hercules, California adding the note which I take from Gudde: "applied to the station in 1989 [typo?] by the Santa Fe to distinguish it from the Southern Pacific station Hercules." Mangoe (talk) 17:28, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Appears on topos as far back as 1949 and mentioned in books even earlier, but all sources point to this being nothing more than a railroad station. –dlthewave ☎ 20:03, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
