I must congratulate the group for producing what seems to be a good clear document covering afaics most issues that have been raised here in the past. It looks like it's somewhat compatible with the european Transmodel/IFOPT standards which is a promising step. As others have noted, where possible we want to keep terminology close to existing standards, so to simplify things when working with data providers and those in the transit industry in the future, although this should not block access to the standard OSMer.
One concern I have (and one that's probably been expressed many times on talk@ etc) is the use of disused=*, rather than adjusting the 'primary' tag on the feature. (eg, railway=disused disused=light_rail etc) Anyway, well done, when I get my exams for this summer over with, I'll be pleased to try getting the NaPTAN data (more) in-line with whatever revision of this spec we have by then.
