For the first two examples there is no doubt that there are still "remains" of a railway, but I still wonder whether it makes much sense to leave the railway tag on this
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.1060394346714&lon=4.379757642745972&zoom=17 especially on the parking area and to a lesser extend in the first part parallel to Voetweg 32. If the line was not on the map, I would never have known that there has been a railway. I don't know of any visual clues there. Of course the Spoorweglaan gives away that there used to be a railway :-) On Sun, Apr 14, 2013 at 11:11 PM, Ben Laenen <benlae...@gmail.com> wrote: > No, highway and cycleway should not share any ways.
