I'm not convinced that e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/312080901 is actually called "Cross Country Route"? Where's the evidence for the name?

Comment from lcmortensen
Based on Wikipedia article "Cross Country Route", but can also be called "Crewe to Derby Line" as far west as North Stafford Junction (near Willington)

Comment from SomeoneElse
It's part of both of those routes, but none of the bits of track between Derby and Willington are _named_ either of those things. Trust me - I've caught trains along there many times.

One other thing - wikipedia is an incompatible licence. It is licensed CC-BY-SA and OSM data is licensed ODBL. The "official" description and links are here:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright
Essentially (and please bear in mind that I'm in no way a legal person!) ODBL is slightly more flexible - it doesn't impose the same requirements on Produced Works that CC-BY-SA would (see
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Open_Data_License/Produced_Work_-_Guideline
and
http://www.osmfoundation.org/wiki/License/Community_Guidelines/Produced_Work_-_Guideline
for more definition of that)
That means that CC-BY-SA isn't compatible with ODBL; ODBL can't guarantee CC-BY-SA contributors what they would be due. So that means no copying from CC-BY-SA sources into OSM, and hence no copying from Wikipedia.
Also, wikipedia is not actually a source at all - it's supposed to contain "no original knowledge". All data in there is supposed to cite some primary source (which of course will have its own licence terms).
