[Talk-GB] What Relation Type to use for the GPSS/CLH Oil Pipeline

Hi

I've looked at them and my initial thought is that the top level 
relationship you have as route and the lower level as network; my 
personal view is that they are inverted - the top level is the network 
and is comprised of routes.

I'm not a fan of type=group and in my mind loosens the relationship of 
what appears to be a cohesive network.
