Hi
I'm confused.
I've a length of railway track that runs along part of a disused line.
It's not connected to the current network & run purely for tourism.
Both KeepRight & Osmose flag an error for 'railway=preserved' tags:
"This way uses deprecated tag 'railway=preserved'. Please use
"historic=railway + railway=rail (or whatever type) +
railway:preserved=yes" instead!"
Apart from those recommendations being listed in reverse order of
importance, it appears to contradict with a few wiki pages:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Railways says 'railway=preserved' is
still OK to use.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dpreserved says
'railway=preserved' is not really liked (note: it doesn't mention
'historic=railway')
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenRailwayMap/Tagging says
'railway:preserved' should be used but note it says 'historic=railway'
"Should be used in conjunction with |railway=disused|,
|railway=abandoned|, and |railway=razed"| which contradicts
KeepRight/Osmose.
Any railway experts able to clarify?
Thanks
DaveF
