Any tracing keen railfans out there?

Publicat per Unusual User Name el 15 Desembre 2011 en English.

The state of Queensland, Australia has a bucketload of railways (lines platforms, pedestrian access) that were not traced by license acceptors, and so will disappear in the license change if not re-mapped.

They're on my to do list, but I have a lot of other things on there as well, and will have less time over the Christmas break.

Some tempting places to work might be:

Gladstone, the port, the coal terminals (world's fourth largest coal export terminal), and the main line heading south

Dutton Park, a largish junction, and suburban lines heading E and W from there. (This junction is partially re-mapped.)
osm.org/?lat=-27.49532&lon=153.03153&zoom=17&layers=M

Acacia Ridge multi-modal terminal, and the main line heading N and S from here.
osm.org/?lat=-27.5797&lon=153.0325&zoom=14&layers=M

Port of Brisbane terminal.

Roma Street Station, 8 tracks close to the city centre
osm.org/?lat=-27.46424&lon=153.01835&zoom=17&layers=M

Bowen Hills Yards, really big
osm.org/?lat=-27.44369&lon=153.03685&zoom=16&layers=M

If you're tempted to help out, remember, please no copying across of line name or platform number unless you can find a legit source or have local knowledge.
I (or some other local) can easily add the line names later.

Please leave the station nodes for now, unless you have a legit source for replacing them. They'll be useful up until the license changeover, and I (or some other local) can use local knowledge to replace them later on.

I will not be joining this, but I think that this is an excellent request, focused and well scoped.

I am a Gladstone local. If you'd like to point me at some documentation of what you'd like me to do, I'll happily do it.
