[Talk-ca] Railways from CanVec?

[Sam Vekemans]

Yup, railways are included in the CanVec set.
Some of the data is kinda old, so the active/in active might be a bit off.
ie. in Cranbrook the abandond railbed from Kimberly to Cranbrook has just
started to be taken up.  It will become (hopefully) part of the Tans Canada
Trail.

So, once the railway gets in there it will be easy to start tagging and
creating relations for each active segment.

Cheers,
Sam

P.S. It appears that the talk-ca discussion list works for me so i'll get
messages right away now ;)
