Re: [talk-au] Railway in Sydney .. tagged light_rail

2014-12-12 Thread Leon Kernan
Someone probably got tangled up with the light rail at some point.

I know there are occasions i've seen massive bridges where people forgot to
split them at the end and it's quite easy to pick up the wrong relation at
times.

You are correct that a normal rail line should be railway=rail.  I'd double
check what the other members of the relation are before changing it though.
That segment might have been added to the wrong relation.

 Hi,

 I've noticed that the main north line railway line in Sydney is tagged
 railway=light_rail .. that does not make sense to me.

 It is of the standard gauge for Australia and carries freight! .. so
 should be tagged railway=rail?

 Ref http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Railways#Types_of_railway_line

 -
 I'm not including lines of less than standard gauge, or those not capable
 of carrying freight. Just the normal train lines in Sydney.
