Hi,
@Greg: please note that the way is not only rendered, it is also routable. I think
that is what Ticker doesn't like.
@Minko: I have no experience with railway=abandoned.
I read about cycle routes which follow the old railway tracks, but I would expect
that the ways building those routes have tags like highway=* or cycleway=*
and therefore I often wondered why we make those ways routable.
I did not yet try to find out how often that happens and how likely it is that this
may lead to trouble for a cyclist.
