Primarily freight/industrial long-distance mainline railroads, BNSF and UP in Colorado also support Amtrak passenger= national trains California Zephyr℠ (Chicago - Bay Area, California) and Southwest Chief® (Chicago - Los Angeles). Then, with infrastructure (largely) complete, combine proper rail elements into v1 passenger routes (if any) with stations and platforms, finally improving these to v2 with a type= route_master relation containing all route= train relations.Ĭolorado's major (Class I) rail operators are BNSF and Union Pacific (UP). While mapping and wiki-documenting USA rail, it is often less confusing to (largely) finish "infrastructure first:" TIGER Reviewed track elements with correct name=* and usage=* tags collected as members into proper route= railway ("Subdivision") relations. USA statewide rail wikis like this often divide rail organization into "infrastructure" (correctly-tagged rail track elements in route= railway relations) and "passenger rail" - either route= train relations if passenger= national, passenger= regional or passenger= suburban, or if not one of these, route= light_rail, route= tram or route= monorail relations, perhaps with a passenger= urban or passenger= local tag. State by state, OSM better completes USA Rail! Passenger rail often follows, though these often can and do improve in parallel. Important tasks now are TIGER Review and completing correct route= railway relations as documented in United_States/Railways.

See United_States/Railways for suggestions on how to better complete OSM's Colorado/Railroads data together with this wiki, including strategies for TIGER Review. As an "early alpha," this wiki is incomplete and likely has minor errors. Some data were improved using USA's Federal Rail Authority GIS site. These data began with OSM-US' 2008 TIGER import, in 2018 were "stubbed inwards" from Colorado's boundary and further developed with Overpass Turbo (OT) queries (numerous shared OT query links are below) as they were documented in this wiki. ( Disused and Abandoned rail tables seem "poor to fair," as they remain incomplete).
