<div dir="ltr">Portland also needs help. Seems whenever the map gets fixed, someone goes through and stomps the name back to something incorrect like "Metropolitan Area Express" or "Portland Streetcar" instead of the subdivision name, and pull things like putting the line of the service running on the tracks as ref=*. God help you if you actually try to point it out, Grant Humphries or Peter Dobratz will get bitchy about it...</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Mar 18, 2015 at 2:56 PM, stevea <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:steveaOSM@softworkers.com" target="_blank">steveaOSM@softworkers.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><a href="http://wiki.osm.org/wiki/California/Railroads" target="_blank">http://wiki.osm.org/wiki/<u></u>California/Railroads</a> now documents an "early alpha" state of OSM rail in California.<br>
<br>
Especially if you are a "railfan" in California, please have a look. Or, if you are a rail enthusiast in another state, and want a template with which to jump-start better OSM rail completion in your neck of the woods, please copy what you might from this wiki. It is a little bit "stubby" (some missing elements in the tables...) but it should provide a good launch pad for either a California railfan or an OSM mapper who wants to ignite a similar venture in another state.<br>
<br>
As is true of so many things OSM: there remains much more to do, but look what we've already done!<br>
