As the next step, should I aedit the tage scheme wiki? I'd
suggest the
following definitions:
electrified=3rd_rail: 3rd contact rail / Used for tracks electrified
by a 3rd rail system, with one additional rail on insulators, using
shoe pickup by the train, and traction current return via the running
rail(s)
electrified=4th_rail: 4th contact rail / Used for tracks electrified
by a 4th rail system, with two additional rails on insulators and two
shoe pickup by the train, and traction current returning via one of
the insulated rails
Yes, that is a good idea.
I would also suggest to put something like electrified=rail
deprecated/discouraged: try to use 3rd_rail or 4th_rail as much as
possible.
