Additional recovery evidence: the delete audit attributes Project.deleted and Volume.deleted to the owner account via Railway CLI 5.41.2, so the dashboard 48-hour self-service path is no longer available. Please escalate immediately to the storage team and preserve/check the original volume's underlying storage before garbage collection. Also preserve the Hobby retained deployment images/records for the last successful ec43bb9295c4620eb8d6c818ab9f614bca352ad2 deployments: app deployment 2c37caec-93ac-4010-be6e-cf4b790ceee6 and worker deployment 24fb2326-3294-4658-b352-1086df9c5992. Please do not create an empty replacement volume; we need the original volume contents reattached if recoverable.

The project was deleted today at 08:25 UTC via railway delete (CLI). The 48-hour restore window applies only to deletions made from the dashboard, not from the CLI, which deletes immediately. That is why the project is no longer restorable despite the short time since deletion. We are not able to recover deleted projects, services, volumes, or their data once the deletion has taken an immediate path, and this does not change based on how the request is framed.

I still need human Railway staff help. The automated answer does not address the time-critical storage-team check documented in prior Railway incidents: whether the original us-west2 underlying volume object and retained deployment records still exist before garbage collection. Please escalate this thread to a human/storage engineer now. Do not create an empty replacement. If full project restore is impossible, please preserve and reattach the original volume contents to a replacement project, and preserve the last successful app/worker deployment snapshots, settings, and variables while Hobby's removed-image retention window is still open.

The deletion record for this project shows the scheduled deletion was created from your account and then explicitly completed immediately from your account about fifteen minutes later, which is what ended the 48 hour window early. The volume and the services had also been deleted individually from your account before that. We do not restore projects, services, volumes, or their data after a user-initiated deletion. The platform-level tooling we maintain internally is reserved for catastrophic platform-side recovery, not for reversing user actions. We will not be reattaching previous volume contents to a replacement project or preserving prior deployment images, settings, or variables.
