[OSM-talk-be] Railway data accuracy , age and origin

[Stijn Rombauts]

"It's useless to draw two "ways" for a single double-track railroad line": almost everywhere all tracks are mapped seperately"to not use a detailed schema for complex station grids": all detail is mapped in most stations"When on a four track group of lines - and this is the case on L36/L36N between Leuven and Brussels - the two inner tracks are another line than the two outer ones, I propose to nevertheless draw them next to each other, nicely parallel as prescribed in the "How to draw a motorway" page.": can it become more outdated?
And what about the voltage, frequency, gauge, usage, ref, name, ... tags? Which tags should be used in Belgium, which not, en which values should they have?
And what about the relations and the tags they should have?
Also this page could use some rewriting...http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Belgium/Railways

What is wrong with it?  most what I see looks still up to date.  Could
you be more specific ?
