Nothing to do with disused=yes - it's not rendered because it's
marked as railway=abandoned, which is the correct way to tag a
former railway line where the tracks have been lifted but the
route is still visible (which I presume is the case here). <br>
<br>
Though I do agree that bridge=* and railway=abandoned would be
useful to have rendered.<div><div class="h5"><br>

<div>Examples abound but an egregious one, in this context, is
the south side of Leeds City Centre where you have the Holbeck
Viaduct with its 92 brick arches 3 stories high marching
across the urban landscape. An extremely visible structure in
reality but rendered invisible on all the main layers simply
due to <b>disused=yes</b>.</div>

The embankments, cuttings and trackbed have not evaporated
either. Their presence on the map is useful for rural
navigation (ROW still climb disused embankments and
cutting), and they are potential routes for ROW improvement
projects which start by staring at a map so let's make OSM
useful for this purpose.<br>
<br>
With 2026 looming we need to avoid hiding useful countryside
information.<br>
