Changeset: 61732873
Removed dismantled railway on map per OSM Wiki: "Most mappers follow a basic good practice map what's on the ground principle, and would therefore regard the mapping of non-existent railways as incorrect data to be placing in the OpenStreetMap database."

Thank you for the great info! I apologize for so hastily deleting - what a mistake! The tag for railway=abandoned/razed makes perfect sense. Is there an easy way to restore the section I removed?
