That's exactly correct. TIGER had the distinction between spur and non-spur railways before service=spur was created. So at the time it was unclear how it would be handled. They should be changed as you described. But be cautious, TIGER's classification of railway is very inaccurate. There are many routes which are marked as spur which shouldn't be, and many which are marked as abandoned which shouldn't be. -Alex Mauer "hawke"
