Changeset: 30493645
With well over a year to go before the streetcar line opens, these stops should be tagged railway:future=tram_stop; also added network tags

Comment from Nate Wessel
Is it in the future if the infrastructure is already finished and in place? Or should it be a route relation (presumed active) that brings the stop into existence?
Can a bus stop exist without a bus? Would it matter if that bus were in the past or the future? Would it demand a location between both?
I'm not really asking so much as having fun with ontology. Your tagging is probably more correct :-)

I figured that OSM-based public transit routers would have no way of knowing that the stops have no service yet. The poor hapless users would be waiting far longer than the standard Metro wait…
For context, I was getting a bit fed up with the many under-construction and proposed BART and Muni stops that were tagged as being complete:

I’m definitely open to more specific tagging, though. `railway=fingers_crossed` ;-)

Comment from Minh Nguyen
After tagging enough “empty” VTA bus stops in San José (with a shelter or bench and a Bus Stop sign that lists no routes), I’ve come around to the idea that the magnificent new streetcar shelters should be tagged as real stops that don’t yet belong to any route relations.
