In the Netherlands, there is the Tram modal of transport, which is different from a Train system.

I would suggest the inclusion of a code for a Tram stop. At the moment, it is not in Geonames.

Best regards,

Hi

I am familiar with the concept of a Tram, we have it too in Zürich, Switzerland. In order to introduce a new feature code we should have data to populate the database.
I have found the lat/lng for Zürich:

A dataset for the whole of Switzerland also seems to include tram stations:
https://opentransportdata.swiss/de/dataset/bhlist/resource/b92a372f-7843-4ddd-b1c6-c9c6397e1097

Do you know similar datasets for the Netherlands? A feature for tram stations is only useful if we have full coverage for entire cities or even entire countries, as many as possible

Best Regards

Marc
