railway=proposed on openptmap.org

Hi,
looking at openptmap.org I saw a railway line, which obviously was not there. I realised, that this railway line had the attribution “proposed”. I think this railway is visible on openptmap.org only by mistake. But I did not see any mailadress to inform the author. Can anyone with more knowledge do this?

Oops. You mean OpenPTmap.org.

Here I guess this person to be the author or at least know him/her:

It’d still be useful to post a link to the object in question.

For example, here is an area with a proposed railway line in it, just to the west of the motorway:

https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html#zoom=15&lat=53.19568&lon=-1.32815

and here is openptmap for that area - it doesn’t show it:

http://openptmap.org/?zoom=15&lat=53.19446&lon=-1.33018&layers=B0000TFT

Perhaps the proposed railway that you saw was tagged incorrectly?

Hi,
look here:

Nothing to be seen from this line. No construction activities.

For info that is https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/258823559/history . You might want to check with the original author to see if that even belongs in OSM.
