    I think osmose may be complaining that it is not an area?<br>
    If an area, then it may just be that historic:railway is not
    documented on the wiki.... so osmose objects.<br>

    <br>
    disused=yes is not good, it should be disused:*=*<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    I would be against railway:historic... for historic:railway. <br>
    <br>
    The confusion is because people try to map different things: <br>
    some try to map things that are no longer there - don't map, use
    OHM!<br>
    some try to map things that are disused - disused:*=*<br>
    some try to map things that are re-purposed<br>
    <br>
    The answers are many, and even where the item is the same thing the
    answers change from mapper to mapper and with time. <br>
    Example: disused=yes used to be the tagging method, now it is
    disused:*=*... <br>

    Personally I don't usually use historic as I am not usually certain
    of the historic worth of the thing. So usually disused: abandoned:
    etc for me. <br>

          The building is still a building...map as a way with <br>
          building=train_station as it is recognisable as a train
          station?<br>
          <br>
          It does appear to be now a museum... I'd map that as a
          separate node <br>
          with the relevant details.<br>
          <br>
          <br>
          It was a train station or halt.. Could be be one again? This
          should be <br>
          an area that includes the building and local track.<br>
          <br>
          disused:railway=halt/station or
          disused:public_transport=station<br>
          <br>
          or abandoned:*=*<br>
          <br>
          If no longer in existence then consider mapping it in OHM.<br>
          <br>
          Nothing Oz specific about it?<br>
