It includes everything but 1) the kitchen sink, and 2) whether the railroad has been abandoned already. :-) The majority of the crossings that I looked at were for driveway or farm crossings. I added the ones that look like they still existed, with blocking in the gauge and/or wheel tracks going up to the crossing. -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list Talk-us@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
