Hi<br>
I'm confused.<br>
<br>
I've a length of railway track that runs along part of a disused
line. It's not connected to the current network & run purely for
tourism.<br>
<br>
Both KeepRight & Osmose flag an error for 'railway=preserved'
tags:<br>
"This way uses deprecated tag 'railway=preserved'. Please use
"historic=railway + railway=rail (or whatever type) +
railway:preserved=yes" instead!"<br>
<br>
Apart from those recommendations being listed in reverse order of
importance, it appears to contradict with a few wiki pages:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Railways">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Railways</a> says 'railway=preserved'
is still OK to use.<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dpreserved">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dpreserved</a> says
'railway=preserved' is not really liked (note: it doesn't mention
'historic=railway')<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenRailwayMap/Tagging">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenRailwayMap/Tagging</a> says
'railway:preserved' should be used but note it says
'historic=railway' "Should be used in conjunction with <code>railway=disused</code>,
<code>railway=abandoned</code>, and <code>railway=razed"</code>
which contradicts KeepRight/Osmose.<br>
<br>
<br>
Any railway experts able to clarify?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
