Add in Railway Layers without Causing Lag

[artemis-beta]

This is a difficult one, most map hosting websites have built their own tiles using the OSM data which are loaded as you zoom. That way they do not have to worry about loading too much data at a time. There are a lot of railway lines and showing them all no surprise causes a lot of lag. I do not yet know how to best approach this as making custom tiles would involve a high amount of storage. The best solution would be if the GeoJSON data can be converted to some kind of SVG which is just placed on top of each tile.

Did a quick search for this, found something that looks pretty interesting:

Written in JS so should hopefully be able to add in quite easily.
