Quite fine. I would name it only 'speed' because it's some child element
of a 'signal' element. That hint could be rolled out for all of the
following examples.

Sorry, if you tried to describe the marker boards, a marker board is not
ETCS-level-specific.

How about the 'levelCrossingRef'?

How about a "trainRadioRef'?

Yes, we need such an element in 'trackElements' for indicating GSM-R
and/or analogue train radio with specified channels/frequencies. [1]

>>> - catenary

>> * no catenary section

How about a 'trackConditionRef' instead of the 'type' attribute in order
to reduce redundancy?

>> - line
>>
>> * indicating the line number

Please don't repeat the elements name in the attribute: 'code' would be
fine. Maybe some country uses combinations of numbers and letters for
their lines.

>> - milepost (de:Hektometertafel)

The mile post needs at minimum two values, one is printed large and one
(the correction) is printed in small letters.

How about a 'trackConditionRef' instead of the 'type' attribute in order
to reduce redundancy?

Christian, would you please summarize this thread and update the Trac
ticket? [2]
