So why oppose to the suggested tagging of station=lower_station/mid_station/upper_station? What harm would this cause?

There is concerns expressed by the tag value lower/upper that imply the elevation difference, do you want to tag this difference or someting else? In other word, can you draft here the definition for those values ?

Yves

I would define it as:

lower_station: station that has the lowest elevation (exact elevation is not necessary to know, it's obvious)
upper_station: station that has the highest elevation
mid_station: any other station
I want to add: At least in Germany, Switzerland and Austria there are well-established german words which you often find in the name of the stations themselves:

* "Talstation" ("valley station")
* "Bergstation" ("mountain station"), sometimes also "Gipfelstation" ("summit station")
* "Mittelstation" ("mid station")

There should be a machine-readeably tagging to get this information that is so often encoded in the name. That's why I'm suggesting this tagging.
