FWIW I had the same problem in Brussels when I tried to map regional routes as RCN (like the Canal route or the Promenade verte), as opposed to local/communal itineraries that exist too.
Someone downgraded them to LCN because RCN was used for node networks around the region and they probably didn't like them to share the same colour... I've given up since, but it would be nice to find a better solution than the current mess. -- Benoit On Tue, Jan 26, 2016 at 6:00 PM, Ben Laenen <benlae...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sunday 24 January 2016 22:38:06 Sander Deryckere wrote: >> I think we should get away from those rcn, lcn and ncn networks.
