 from those used for tourist information only sites.


that s not an issue, you can add both tags to the same object if this makes 
sense (I suggest to also add information=* to be more explicit)

cheers,

Only in that you'd want (most,typical) rendering agents to treat
ranger_station as the primary key.  tourism=information is primary if there
are no other keys.

I like your proposal. It would simplify mapping in parks with dedicated
ranger stations. Since there are 59 National Parks on our radar, each with
a least one ranger station, often more, the feature will be used throughout
the US.

A Wikipedia search list over 6,000 results for ranger stations. The first
few pages appear to be sites that should be mapped.
