I noticed he has unblocked himself and is working again, but in the new changeset I looked at yesterday "tracks=N" was no longer being added. Still not sure about the sources of the other information (electrification info, usage etc), maybe it's inside info, maybe it's a guess, or maybe he is just widely-travelled. It is certainly spread widely across Europe. //colin On 2015-10-12 10:50, Maarten Deen wrote: > I have received a private message from the user: > >> Hoi Maarten, >> >> Met het aantal tracks wordt aangegeven het aantal sporen die parallel aan >> elkaar liggen. >> >> Tracks=1 = Enkelspoor Tracks=2 = Dubbelspoor Tracks=3 = Driesporig Tracks=4 >> = Viersporig >> >> Mvgr, >> >> Wim > > Translated: > >> The number of tracks indicates the number of railwaytracks that are parellel >> to each other >> >> Tracks=1 = singletrack Tracks=2 = doubletrack Tracks=3 = three tracks >> Tracks=4 = four tracks. > > I have replied to him that this is not how the key should be used and that > you only use the key when railways are mapped with one way for all the tracks. > > Regards, > Maarten > > _______________________________________________ > talk mailing list > talk@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
