That is true, thank you Nathan Proudfoot. For the Union Pacific, I
was disappointed that their web site requires a (UP employee?) login
and password to gain access to their geographic rail data. BNSF seems
a bit better (providing "high level" rail maps at a nationwide
glance), and other railroads are probably somewhere around "you get
what you get," but please do take Nathan's good advice and seek data
directly from a rail entity as a good first strategy for obtaining
track/lead/line/subdivision names, for example.
In my experience these types of companies seldom provide anything under
a usable license - is this different for US-based rail company databases?
