Hi Jarek,
I've now written a short proposal:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Tag:usage%3Dirregular
Please feel free to edit the wiki page directly. By the way, i found
an example of an underground and of a light train diversion-only
track.
I'm still a bit unsure if these

I think it is sensible to not restrict it to trams. While i'm not
aware of irregular light rail or underground tracks, i can well
imagine

No worries, I agree a dedicated tag with proper
Hi Jarek,
I still find service=siding to be inappropriate for irregular tracks
and would prefer a new tag, such as usage=irregular. I am willing to
prepare a proposal for it as soon as i find some time.

The current four service values are based on physical characteristics of the track that are easily observed on the ground and unlikely to change.This proposal seems to overload that with an indication of how the track is used, and we already have a tag for that: usage. Granted, none of its

Hi Jarek,
I'd welcome a tag for tram tracks that normally aren't used except for
diversions (in case of breakdowns, accidents, road/track works, events
etc.) or for drives to the depot. However, i'm unsure whether
service=siding is a good fit for these tracks. I'm not an expert in
trams/trains,
Hello,
In tram systems, some of the tracks might not be used regularly for
passenger service. Some might be garage or work area tracks, and
others might be used only for detours or emergency service.
The `service` key seems a natural match for tagging this, but its
