Tracks buried in the asphalt are usually a good indication. You don't need to get out your tape measure to see if the cracks are 4' 8.5" apart. I don't have any pictures of the building, but it's in the description. https://www.flickr.com/photos/russnelson/286222501/in/album-72157603830566601/ Don't believe me? Here's the rails on the other side of the building: https://www.flickr.com/photos/russnelson/286222504/in/album-72157603830566601/ If that's not enough, the presence of buildings with loading doors are boxcar height and spacing ought to suggest that a railroad went past. Or how about a spur track? Had to connect to something, right? https://www.flickr.com/photos/russnelson/2154335831/in/album-72157603830566601/ -- --my blog is at http://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
