Either with an operator being the same as the rail company/authority or a 
different one (contracted out BY the rail company/authority), I can see the 
operator=* tag as being a helpful, disambiguating tag, especially when these 
differ.  But we shouldn't always assume that NO operator=* tag means "same as 
the train operator," as, with other kinds of missing data, "maybe so, maybe 
not."

Nice suggestion, Andy.
