The line that intersects the words Cabra Park is on the old Western railway Alignment to Broadstone, none of the others have any rail connection.

You scream too quickly.

I worked it out - the maps are drawn from multiple databases and one has railway information that is a few hundred metres too far east. :rolleyes: You'll notice that some roads are in twice and street names ditto. In addition the computer seems to join up things that aren't joined.
