Gated on #212 and #215. Covers railways, stations and the rail half of transit,
because in Czechia they are all the same source and the same fetch.

All verified live 2026-08-24 on the anonymous ZABAGED WFS, CC BY 4.0:

railways ← Železniční_trať, 5 248 segments, with typtrati_p
(electrified / not), typrozch_p (gauge), vlastnik_p (owner — state railway etc.),
pocetkolej (track count). Železniční_vlečka holds industrial sidings and should be
a separate decision, not silently unioned in.
stations ← Železniční_stanice__zastávka (points) and
Areál_železniční_stanice__zastávky (station-area polygons). Establish which carries
names and whether there is an importance signal for the rung ladder; if there is not, say
so rather than inventing one.
transit ← Metro (108) and Tramvajová_dráha (1 440). This is the
good case Greece did not get: survey geometry, not GTFS shapes, so no distortion
problem. Trams cover Prague, Brno, Ostrava, Olomouc, Plzeň, Liberec and Most–Litvínov.
Lanová_dráha__lyžařský_vlek mixes cable cars with ski tows. A split rule is needed
before any of it feeds transit; ski lifts are not transit.
