I do like this challenge concept, however, given TIGER's somewhat lackluster modeling of railways, seems like a prerequisite challenge would be to tiger-review it and get the tracks actually lining up with reality first.

Hi Paul:

I completely agree that railways in OSM from TIGER can use review and improvement. So much so that I have written this paragraph in our wiki as a suggestive process to do so:

I invite you and everybody reading talk-us to roll up your sleeves and pitch in: with hundreds of thousands of miles of rail in the USA, there is a lot of work ahead to improve our national rail infrastructure!

We can complete these tasks simultaneously -- I don't think one is necessarily prerequisite to the other.
