Notes
OSM maps for Europe and North America are downloaded form https://download.geofabrik.de/
Tag filtering is used to select rail lines and stations, and then data is transformed to .geojson and uploaded in the database server. To manipulate and transform data, we use https://osmcode.org/osmium-tool/
