I've used it for the entire area used for railway purposes: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=41.75387&lon=-87.67841&zoom=17&layers=B000FTF On the other hand, I've used landuse=highway just for the paved area, but this could easily be changed at this point, with existing uses changed to surface=paved. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
