Description
  Abstract: Represents railroads. The railroads are subtyped to provide a simplified representation of railroad yards, or multiple lines, as a single linear feature, which supports cartographic presentations.
  Purpose: For cartographic mapping and general use in GIS and spatial analysis.
  Supplemental Information: Railroads were captured as part of the City's initial base mapping effort. Railroads were interpreted from orthophotography captured in March of 1999.
