I believe this diagram is completely wrong regarding the station area and
landuse. I suggest to remove or improve it.
The landuse=railway is not ending at the station boundaries [1]. The area
depicted as landuse=railway is actually the railway=station area.

The user who made this diagram is the same who removed the area-icon from
the railway=station article, so it is not astonishing he used a node only
version in his diagram.

Cheers,
Martin
