+1, and even by the wiki these would not (if at all) mapped as railway=abandoned but as dismantled or sth like that (and this tag is maybe not to be used because dismantled (absent) features should not be mapped). > But I see a lot of > things where there is clearly a cut/fill topography and the railbed > itself is a feature on the ground. > +1, looking only for tracks is too few. When the railbed is there it could be mapped with a railway tag IMHO. cheers, Martin
