[iRail] Collaborative Station lists

Wed Nov 10 06:40:15 UTC 2010

Just to add some informations:

*) we need a webpage like irail.be where people from all europe can test 
irail and with the European hafas system.
Just send this link in some forums and you will see the station list 
populating automatically.

*) Once you found a new station, I guess you can check something with 
this website to get gps position: http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/geocoder/
I tried with "gare de charleroi-sud", "brussel-zuid station", "brussel 
zuid statie" and that give me excellent results

Maybe your script can use this.
