Clay, I know it is an extra ask, I request that you document how you're doing this at (minimally):

https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/Tag:railway%3Dhalt#Distinction_Between_Halt_and_Station
and
https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/OpenRailwayMap/Tagging#Stations_.2F_Stops

with the usual "In North America..." distinction text that is similarly sprinkled around the latter.

I'd consider it optional (though courteous) to find a place to add this to:
https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/United_States/Railways
and
https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/OpenRailwayMap/Tagging_in_North_America

although I leave how and where exactly (or even whether you do so) up to you.

Thank you,
SteveA
