I'll respond in three parts. I have a copy of an official BNSF subdivision map, and the Springerville Subdivision is on it. It is a BNSF line. > Is it a subdivision or a lead? If BNSF calls it the Springerville Subdivision, then it is the Springerville Subdivision. We don't have a tag denoting whether a line is a subdivision or a lead. > Is the usage "industrial"? I'd tag it with usage=branch. usage=industrial is meant for ports, expansive industrial parks, quarries, and the like. A 60-mile line going through mostly non-industrial areas does not qualify as an industrial line for the purpose of the usage= tag.
