Railway Stations

Station Node

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.

Railway Route Relation

General & Train-Specific Route

Relation 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 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.

Route Variants

Relation 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.
