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...
