I had seen the same sentence and wrestled with it as well. Concider the central station of Amsterdam, which has one (soon: two) subway stations with 2 platforms each, a bus station with 10-is platforms, another bus station with 7 platforms, two tram stations with 4-5 platforms each, and a ferry terminal with 5ish ferry slips, and off course 12 train platforms (with a/b/c sections meaning about 30-ish stop position/platform combinations) What I would do is make a stop area for each "substation" (for one mode) then make a general stop area which contains only stop areas and maybe one main station node. This gives warnings from the JOSM validator, as a stop_area isn't an accepted member of a stop_area. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
