This case is not especially treated in the schema. But you are free to
put a whole big timetable with thousand trains in a file, or to send
just a few update-trains. I think this is a task for the receiving
program to identify the trains as new or known ones.

There is the <date> attribute in <train> which could be used as date of
the last change and I thought about adding another optional attribute
<status> in the <train> element (as used within SBB) wich could have
values like "new", "changed", "omitted", ...
Would this be helpful?
