Nice. And a miniature railway too! The layout looks a little odd though (three separate tracks - I presume they're all linked together?). It'd be nice to add some enclosures too. > So, I went out yesterday to start doing London > Zoo (though without actually going in), which could really benefit > from someone wanting to pay £18 to go in and map for an afternoon :) > > http://osm.org/go/euu4T5yf > I almost went to London Zoo yesterday, but ended up going paintballing (it was a friend's birthday do). I'm sure there are some London folk out there who could be persuaded to go and map it though...

Good idea - I've just done this. (see http://osm.org/go/eufvD4GO) Not sure how big the gap between the two halves should be - I've just guesstimated it. I've also added both 'sides' of the zoo to a 'site' relation (see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Proposed/Site), so that tags can be shared between them, but I'm not sure how well this is supported in the renderers at the moment.
