This article, created by a subsequently blocked sock, is almost certainly WP:AIGENERATED, and it fails the second WP:NOT test of WP:NOTESSAY under WP:GNG. I recognize this is an encyclopedic topic, but given the LLM content and structural problems, I propose to redirect to public transport as a WP:TNT solution until editors in good standing can address the topic appropriately.

Delete The types listed are entirely different concepts. While the target users of these are related, this is not a unified topic, nor do the sources suggest a clear relationship. Reywas92^Talk 23:28, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per Reywas92. That it might have been written by an LLM is irrelevant, and all the online references at least are real and at least superficially relevant, but software used in public transport is not a single concept any more than software used by airlines is. For example, Lodon Underground uses rail signalling software, embedded train management software, train operations software, timetabling software, passenger information system software, journey planning software, depot management software, general business software, and almost certainly more that have little overlap. Then you have software for non-rail modes (buses, ferries, cable car, etc). Thryduulf (talk) 10:27, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As nominator I would view a delete outcome as acceptable. Dclemens1971 (talk) 18:29, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
