Yeah, I was joking. It's a little premature. Still, I wonder what the
operator name should be? uk_government? Or operator=nationalised?

This is where the relation type=route gets a little fuzzy. Are we
representing a service pattern, or a franchise, or a named rail corridor?
This has confused me recently when tagging heritage railways (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_United_Kingdom_Independent_and_minor_railways).
For instance on the Mid Norfolk railway (
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/165383), should "name=Mid
Norfolk Railway" be present on the relation, the ways, or both?
