Thanks for sharing your method.

However that is still brush line for the railway symbol which is not supported 
when using SVG format, isn’t it? Could you verify if a wms getmap call which 
contains the railway layer and in the getmap request set the output format=SVG 
to see if that works at your side?

Thanks again,
Teng

Without seeing the "tie" symbol, its hard to say if mine is different. 
Here's how I draw mine:

SYMBOL
        NAME "railway"
        TYPE truetype
        FONT "Vera"
        CHARACTER "|"
END

CLASS
        NAME 'Railroad'
        STYLE
                SYMBOL 0
                COLOR 0 0 0
                SIZE 1
        END
        STYLE
                SYMBOL 'railway'
                COLOR 0 0 0
                SIZE 7
                GAP -10
        END
END
