In my experience, railway data in TIGER is much less likely to be up to date than road data, presumably because census workers need to visit people that live along roads, but railways are just convenient reference points. There are railroad rights-of-way in Maryland that were abandoned in the 1970s, complete with pulling up the rails, but were still listed as active in TIGER. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
