[Talk-us] UK assumptions that don't hold in the U.S.

[Nathan Edgars II]

I've noticed some odd things on OpenCycleMap and other renderings, and I 
think it's due to a difference in how things are in the UK vs. here.

*Most railways have passenger service. Thus OCM (and the transport map) 
show all rail lines.
*Tracks are useful for cycling. When you zoom in on OCM, tracks are 
highlighted the same as footways. But a track is just a narrow (usually) 
unpaved road, and is worse for cycling than a low-traffic paved road. 
This also shows up on renderings such as http://www.itoworld.com/map/26 
where tracks are included in "path/cycle-path etc" rather than "road".
