An anonymous note adder (http://www.openstreetmap.org/note/267719) and
someone on IRC noticed some problematical railway edits near
Sutton-in-Ashfield:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/311380489#map=15/53.1247/-1.2346&layers=N
It looks like an attempt to dual the Robin Hood line went a bit wrong
and ended up slicing through an industrial estate and some areas of
housing (though I'm sure it was "cock-up rather than conspiracy" as Sir
Bernard Ingham would have said). Looking at some other edits in the
same changeset, there are some other, less obvious, issues too, which
I've added to the changeset discussion:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/26590071
The most obvious problem seems to be "tracing the railway in but not
joining properly to other features (such as crossings)". Some
information (e.g. "cutting=yes") has also been lost.
Another local changeset:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/26587435
has some similar issues.
There have been a number of other edits, some with rather a lot of
deletions in them, including:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/26613977
All of these changesets could probably also benefit from a review from
local mappers to identify potential issues.
Cheers,
Andy
