Hi,
is it allowed to create a relation Dresden - Leipzig, a relation Leipzig - SFS - Erfurt and a relation Erfurt - Fulda and a relation Fulda - Frankfurt (Süd) and then put all these relations in one master route?
If yes, some tools could profit from this to show big routes constructed out of pieces.
And the small pieces can be used in many routes.
When constructing an IC Dresden - Leipzig - Hannover - Köln, the first piece Dresden - Leipzig already exists and can be used for it.
If it is forbidden, how long does one come in prison if he creates such relations?

about 7 years lifelong, execution by bullet... otherwise it gets too costly.
In OSM route_master is used for the lines. route relations are used for the variations, so for many lines that means at least 2 route relations in a route_master.
I've been proposing to use route_segment relations for the problem you'd like to see solved. One of the problems is that our editors don't have good support for that. I'm mostly mapping bus lines and it brings some complexity of its own. All in all it would also solve many problems. When a variation now gets broken, it's very likely all of them are, which causes a lot of work to solve them again, over and over again. If we had route_segments, we'd simply fix it in 2 route_segments and be done with it.

I think that the OpenRailwayMap mailing list is not the right place for this question because the project focusses on infrastructure, not train routes and traffic in general. Your question is a general public-transport question which also applies to e.g. bus routes, not just railways. Also many people who are not subscribed to this list may be interested in this question.
You should post your question on another mailing list such as talk-transit, talk-de or talk.

You are right, but:
When doing the peaces shorter and shorter one could come to a tagging scheme tagging rail roads ("Fahrstraßen"). And then it's a matter of infrastructure.
In reality control boxes can use the principle of fixed rail roads ("tabellarisches Prinzip") or use a dynamic path finding process ("topologisches Prinzip").
I'm not joking, I see it coming having rail roads and then the train only goes over these rail roads, meaning to have a relation with rail roads as members.
Having a train route on infrastructure is a good way to validate it, seeing if all speeds and signals are set correct (when having a tool for it, as is seems to come up).
