I have an example of an embankment situation. See http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-37.72361&lon=144.86789&zoom=17 The freight rail line is on an embankment over Steele Creek, which goes through a "tunnel" (culvert) under the embankment. The Western Ring Road motorway just to the NW is instead two bridges over the creek. I could swear it used to show up on one of the renderer layers, but not now. Might be because of all the Mapnik style changes they have been working on. BlueMM Search 1000's of available singles in your area at the new Yahoo!7 Dating.
