[Talk-transit] Should railway station relations includebusstops?

[Thomas Wood]

One point,
naptan:verified=no is designed to be deleted, rather than changed to yes
In this case maintaining the naptan tags whilst including other stops
will be misleading when comparing how data is changed in the future.
Maybe change the StopAreaCode to be a semicolon delimited list of the
StopAreaCodes you moved the points from?

It is my intention this week to focus on PT tagging in London. I need
to dip myself into editing the map by hand again, I've been stuck in
code land for too long.
