Yeah, that maybe makes sense if a station is temporarily out of use -
can you think of an example? But generally, any renderer that supports
"historic:railway=station" is going to render it sufficiently
different from "railway=station" that it's not needed.

The main mapnik style doesn't support historic:railway=station, so
currently it will just disappear - which isn't really such a bad
thing.

PS If you're replying to digest emails, would you mind trimming off
all the other bits? That was quite a wall of text...
