Dear Joachim and railML users,

during the last railML.org meeting in Zurich I started wondering if we
really need a reference from the timetable's <stopDescription> to the
infrastructure's <platformEdge> or <serviceSection> (cp. [1], [2]).

For me, it seems to be sufficient to only have a reference to a
<stopPost> element and since the <stopPost> includes the boolean
parameter "virtual", it can be placed everywhere a train or locomotive
can stop (cp. [3]). Further, a stop post refers to its corresponding
platform edge via the parameter "platformEdgeRef", which might be
formulated in a more generic way to include the service sections as
well. Thus, a direct reference from the <stopDescription> to the
<platformEdge> or <serviceSection> would not be necessary anymore, would it?

Any comments appreciated...
