I completely agree. As a fellow data user, I think the rule of thumb should be that anything tagged as railway=station or shop=baker or amenity=bank should be a an open, functioning station, baker or bank. You shouldn't have to check a potentially ever-expanding set of additional tags to find out if they are in fact closed, proposed, imaginary, an art installation, etc. > Would there be objections to changing the situation with UK railway > stations to bring it into line with highways/railway lines, e.g. > railway=disused, disused=station , or e.g. railway=abandoned, > abandoned=station?
