[Talk-us] USA Rail is early alpha

2015-12-30 Thread stevea

2015 sees USA rail arriving to an alpha state of completion.
Pretty, huh?

In 2014 we saw the beginnings of orange mainlines emanating from 
Kansas City.  2015 is the alpha state "rough cut" we see nationwide 
today.  Very nice, so far, everybody, in a year or so.  Onto 2016, 
OSM.


OK, this is a little self-congratulatory, towards us, OSM as a 
project, and its many sub-projects, not me.


Happy New Year, you wonderful project!
