As every track segment has a maximum speed, why not just apply the
existing maxspeed=* tag to the tracks? It is not clear to me whether
your intention with traffic=fast refers to some attribute of the track
itself, or the use to which it is put. Is it some "official" designation
(from Network Rail)? I recall also seeing things like service=main_line
(from memory) to distinguish main line from local tracks.

There's two things that distinguish HSLs/LGVs/NBSs: high maxspeed
(typically 250-320, though some would include the new lines in
Switzerland, which are "only" 200), and a lack of slow traffic
(freight, stopping passenger services) because they have alternative
routes.
In some cases, you can get pretty high speeds without providing a
second pair of lines, if traffic is sparse (upto 200kmh in the UK,
upto 230kmh in Germany), so I think the presence/absence of a parallel
slow route is something that can usefully tagged explicitly.

Hi taggers,
Colins question are there more countries with different speed
rules on tracks ? Yes all the TGV like tracks in Europe through,
France, Germany and Netherlands are specially build for TGVs but
somewhere there still tracks combined, limited speed up to 100
miles / hr.
