Someone probably got tangled up with the light rail at some point. I know there are occasions i've seen massive bridges where people forgot to split them at the end and it's quite easy to pick up the wrong relation at times.
You are correct that a normal rail line should be railway=rail. I'd double check what the other members of the relation are before changing it though. That segment might have been added to the wrong relation.
