I don't think that the way to is a reliable indicator of trail vs road.
Particularly in areas managed for forestry, I believe it's fairly common
for a disused skid road to be managed and used as a non motorized trail (I
can think of a few examples around here), which is a distinct situation
from a

The numbering is consistent only within a single National Forest and
numbers will likely repeat even where multiple national forests are
contiguously adjacent. The numbers are unique within each individual
forest, though.

As Paul said, it depends on the type of road. In Georgia, the signage
has been the brown keystone one for roads that mere mortal cars can
drive on:

And the vertical ones with FS on them for people with more advanced vehicles:

Doesn't the Forest Service use FR for "Forest Road" at the reference? I'd
think that, or NFR to distinguish from state forest roads, would be the
more appropriate ref, as FS is ambiguous (it doesn't distinguish between a
forest road and a forest trail).
(c.f.
Oh I am so happy that Frederik brought this up. I've been thinking
about this topic for a while, but just haven't said anything. I love
the ensuing discussion, too.
So, first, the wiki page on now to tag the refs
I'm not familiar with OSM routing, but these roads enter and cross some of
the most inhospitable mountainous terrain in the United States.
Some, like the 101 mile long Magruder Corridor (
https://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5109483.pdf ) are
only open a few months of the year,

It is worth noting that the current shape file available from USDA seems to be
more comprehensive than the forest service roads layer available:
https://data.fs.usda.gov/geodata/edw/datasets.php?dsetCategory=transportation
Worth noting that most people just call them forest service roads. I've
never heard anyone call them "forest highways."

As other have mentioned, there are many numbered roads managed by the
USFS. They range in development from closed, abandoned log roads to
well maintained pavement. I map them using the FS prefix.
For the general public one of the main uses is the publication of
motor vehicle access conditions:
Frederik,
I don’t remember it being widely discussed / agreed upon.
When I map these roads I include the FS number (just the number) as a ref,
since that is how they are signposted in the field.
