on the right).
I am certainly not proposing separate ways for separate lines. I think
there should either be one way for a bunch of parallel tracks or
alternatively one way per track if people are getting nerdy (surely
not!). I was just proposing that line names should be defined in the
relations and not on the ways - the ways should only be named if the
name is associated with that piece of track rather than the line that
runs on it.
I agree that there is an interesting job for renderers that want to
render maps where multiple lines share a section of track and it will
be great when someone rises to the challenge. Possibly it is a good
compromise until then for ways to have names in addition to the
relations to work with current renders.

Do they? I've seen quite a few Rail Signs that seam to be in km/h. Not
being a train driver I'm not always sure. I think that it might be
that National Rail use mph and Euro Tunnel use kph. I think we might
have to find a train expert to check.....
On a simular subject are there ways of Tagging 3rd Rail vs Overhead
Power etc
Oh and London Bridge is a mess, on 5 or 6 Layers. Needs major work,
but is very difficult.... Is there a way of tagging platforms with
where the trains go. eg Platform 3 - Maidstone and Paddock Wood for
Strood.
Peter.
