[talk-au] what to do about railway line

If you add ways between the two carriageways that are a layer higher than
the rail line, they should appear as crossings over the railway.

Stuart says:

"Well if it acts as a median strip (ie, cars can't cross it), then make it
like a dual carriageway, but with a railway in between the two ways."

I guess this is the solution ... however as cars can cross and make right
hand turns across the line, you'll have to add all these little extra ways
all along the affected street. 

One day when OSM provides auto routing, it'll need this. 

I think we need to attend to these details as we build. :)
