No, railway=border is meant for locations where two distinct operators of infrastructure meet at the boundary of two countries (e.g. boundary locations between DB Netz (Germany) and ProRail (The Netherlands)). railway=owner_change is meant for locations where there is no national border (e.g. DB Netz and a private infrastructure operator meeting). > Example: > https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2437528281 > > What do you all think? I changed a couple of these nodes into railway=site in Germany a few weeks ago because they have a DS100 facility code (railway:ref=*) but I am not against removing them completely because there is no representation on the ground (apart from the boundary stones of the border).
