It's often natural language that makes people do that. For example, 
people say: "This is a railway line under construction", or "this is an 
abandoned railway line" which implies that the object is first and 
foremost a railway line, with some attributes - when in fact it is *not* 
a railway line, but a construction site, and so on.
