[talk-au] Cycle path under railway

[Evan Sebire]

From memory isn't the train line raised for a long sections including the 
station.  So using the bridge=yes or bridge=viaduct on the train line would be 
appropriate with the layer tag as Ross suggested.

I think the Alfread St road crossing should be under the train track from 
memory?
