    Hi,<br>
    <br>
    The markers were installed by the railway, and are maintained by the
    railway. They are pole numbers attached to each telegraph pole along
    the railway. To help emergency services locate points along the
    railway Puffing Billy provided their location to ESTA with the "PBM"
    prefix.<br>
    <br>
    As the railway created and maintains them I assume they are allowed
    to give permission for others to use them.<br>
    <br>
    Regards,<br>
    Kim<br>

                  <p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<br>
                    <br>
                    I have a list of 200 emergency marker locations
                    along 22km of the <br>
                    Puffing Billy Railway which were provided to me by
                    the railway with <br>
                    permission to include them in OSM.<br>
                    <br>
                    I've been reading through <a
                      href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import"
                      target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import</a>
                    - <br>
                    most of which appears to be geared toward larger
                    imports and using <br>
                    publicly available data with various licenses. The
                    data for my import is <br>
                    not publicly available, and was provided to me when
                    I asked to import it <br>
                    into OSM.<br>
                    <br>
                    I've searched overpass-turbo and there are no <br>
                    highway=emergency_access_points, name~"PBM", or
                    ref~"PBM" near the list <br>
                    of nodes I have to import. This indicates that none
                    of the nodes are <br>
                    already mapped.<br>
                    <br>
                    Based on the example file on <br>
                    <a
                      href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM_file_format"
                      target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM_file_format</a>
                    I've converted the <br>
                    emergency marker list into xml, the start of which
                    looks like:<br>
                    <br>
                    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><br>
                    <osm version="0.6"><br>
                    <node id="-3" lat="-37.907468"
                    lon="145.36039"><br>
                       <tag k="ref" v="PBM003"/><br>
                       <tag k="highway"
                    v="emergency_access_point"/><br>
                    </node><br>
                    ...<br>
                    <br>
                    In JOSM I can import this file and merge the layer.
                    I'm intending to <br>
                    then upload this with appropriate an comment noting
                    that the data was <br>
                    provided by Puffing Billy Railway with permission to
                    include it in OSM.<br>
                    <br>
                    I'm proposing to import this as a one off, single
                    change set under my <br>
                    existing OSM username.<br>
                    <br>
                    Is this a reasonable way to do this import? Is there
                    anything else I <br>
                    should do?<br>
                    <br>
                    Regards,<br>
