@jon https://data-interop.era.europa.eu/map-explorer if you click on a line on this map and then click on a track in the pop-up it will tell you the loading gauge

if you're doing it enough that that's annoying and no-one else has bothered, i can probably hack together a map from the data

@jon i tried it for three different random places in Italy and they all did 🤔

are you definitely clicking on a "track" not not a "line"?

@wnd lol i was going to ask _you_ that :)

best i found so far is that you can click around and select an area to export

@jon

@HaTetsu their server didn't like it when i asked for loading gauge so i wrote my own xml parser

i think we're getting somewhere. red is more restricted gauge, i think, and blue is less restricted?

if anyone can point me at a 'Gauge=20 => "GB"' dictionary and, even better, a big dictionary of 'my gauge => compatible gauges', i can make a nice map of 'i bought four billion quid's worth of trains now let's see where can i go with them'

@wnd @jon

@HaTetsu @wnd @jon i thought i would do it the 'right' way and use their SPARQL endpoint

i have suspiciously large amounts of missing data from spain (and the UK?) so i guess i will go back to doing it the wrong way with my handwritten XML parser - especially given the missing line next to ventimiglia that was there in the previous attempt

@HaTetsu @bovine3dom @jon as I understand it, RINF data is published to ERA under the INF TSI regulation. But not GB data, for obvious reasons. Although the INF TSI should still apply in Northern Ireland and data populated.

(The INF TSI has been superceded in Britain by the INF NTSN https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ntsn-infrastructure
There is a pre-2019 cut of the GB RINF dataset and will see if I can find a copy.)

Noting, I don't know much about the INF TSI nor EC rail regulation in Norway...

@wnd aside from the missing data, poland, hungary and romania all look too perfect. is romania really truly entirely GC gauge?

also, it looks like the mapping i want of national gauges -> international ones only exists in a $500 EN standard - EN 15273-2 - if anyone happens to have a copy on their desk :)

@HaTetsu @jon

@bovine3dom I would be able to sort this for GB gauges. European ones less so.
