Thanks, I made the changes, im using the tag "operator=*" and using the star as a 'fixme', so map users would fill it in with the company name that owns the rail. I don't use the word 'fixme' because its not manditory & its more important to tag the name.
Re: snowshed i am entering it as 'tunnel', however i do think its worth getting a special icon for it. Or maybe 'shed' would be better? As that is used in railyards, but it could almost be classified as a building. -Needs further investigation before dismissing.
