I was considering to use the 'url' tag for a link to the real-time passing times of our stops in Flanders, Belgium:
https://www.delijn.be/nl/haltes/halte/303058 or http:/mijnlijn.be/303058, which expands to the above url. the stop's id number is already contained in ref:De_Lijn for all these stops, I might drop the ref:De_Lijn tag if/when I do that.
