[OSM-talk-ie] Bord na Móna railways

[Donal Diamond]

Fixed Bord na Móna   see http://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/28175757

I just did a wizard query on http://overpass-turbo.openstreetmap.ie/  for:

“operator="Bord Na Móna" in Ireland”

Then selected Export/load data into an OSM editor: Josm.

After that it was a simple select all and fix operator tag.
