You are right: the railML infrastructure visualisation branch looks
rather like a railML 1.x than the current schema structure of railML
2.2. The reason for this is that while the regular infrastructure schema
has been updated over the years following the documented user
requirements, there haven't been any requests for an update of the
visualisation schema. I guess, it has not been used in the meantime.
However, if there is a need for having this infrastructure visualisation
branch, then we should think about an adaptation of its structure with a
new release.
