Hi All The river network download is country wide, and does include connecting node information, along with the names. The data is much better quality and more accurate than some of the older imported stuff in OSM. It only includes major rivers and streams and is simplified, it does not include drains, etc..
The road download is also country wide, it includes connecting node information and also the names of the roads. It also seems to include residential roads.
