Railway Stations

Station Node

Node for indicating position of railway station.

• For multiple lines sharing a station, try to minimise the number of railway station nodes by using a common node for all lines except lines that are physically located away from node.
• Node shall be positioned at the centroid of the station. This position may not be identical to the train station building as it should represent the center of the station premise inclusive of train platform.
• Used to capture the lines available at the station via route relations. This can be used to render transfer stations connected to different lines.
• Shall be used as member stop in legacy public transport route relations (public_transport:version=1).
• Shall be used as member station in new public transport route relations (public_transport:version=2) as an extension to current proposal.

building	train_station, roof	This refers to the physical station building or roof structure.

Railway Route Relation

General & Train-Specific Route

Relation for railway general route information.

• General route information such as general Shinkansen routes (i.e. Tohoku, Tokaido, Sanyo, Kyushu, Jonetsu and Hokuriku).
• General route information such as general railway lines containing all railway tracks without stops.

Relation for railway train-specific route information with stop information.

• Refers to routes ply by trains serving one or more railway lines.
• Refers to routes ply by Shinkansen trains (i.e. Yamabiko train, Hayate train, Sakura train, Toki train, e.t.c.).
• Refers to routes ply by Limited Express trains or other named trains where they may ply the same routes with reduced stops.

Relation tags

Key	Value	Comment
Tags in General	Recommended Values in General
name:en	Name of railway company & Name of railway line	The name of railway company is included to ensure consistency between all rail lines. There are many instances of a rail line with the same name operated by different operators, i.e. Chichibu, Utsunomiya.
ref	Name of line in Japanese (followed by English or Romanji in brackets)	Used for rendering various transport maps.
type	route	Indicates route relation.
route	railway (General route) train (Train-specific) subway (Subway-specific)	Indicates route type.
public_transport:version	1, 2	1 for legacy public transport relations and 2 for new public transport relations.

Relation members

Railway Line	Way	-	For railway ways.
Railway Station	Node	stop (Legacy), station (New)	For railway station node. Member role of station for new public transport relation is an extension to allow for tracking of station node that serves as a transfer station while still meeting the requirements for the new public transport relation.
Railway Stop Position	Node	stop (New)	For new public transport relations stop position.

Route Variants

Relation for railway route variants.

• Used to capture route variants such as rail branches.
• Used to capture route variants such as local service, limited express and other special services.
• Used to capture routes in opposite directions.
