Yep, that's common too, though I'm sure it varies a lot depending on the area of the country and such. I wouldn't trust anything other than "on-the-ground" mapping for that, either -- rail lines are hard to see from the aerial photos. Once it's mapped of course, it becomes easier to determine what service tag a rail line will need. Of course, it doesn't help that most (all?) rail lines are posted no trespassing... -Alex Mauer "hawke"
