Hi Jerl,

I found a solution on a german website
which deals with cartographic signatures.
Unfortunately the descriptions are in
german, but you can get excerpts from
map-files and see the corresponding
signature:
http://www.mapmedia.de/dokumente/umn_signaturen_howto/index.html#linien

Here is their solution for railroads:

CLASS
     STYLE
         COLOR 102 102 102
         SYMBOL 'punkt'
         SIZE 4
     END
     STYLE
         COLOR 255 255 255
         SYMBOL 'rechteck-bahn'
         SIZE 2
     END
END


SYMBOL
     NAME 'punkt'
TYPE ELLIPSE
POINTS
         1 1
     END
FILLED TRUE
END

SYMBOL
     NAME 'rechteck-bahn'
     TYPE VECTOR
     POINTS
         0 0
         0 0.6
         1 0.6
         1 0
         0 0
     END
     FILLED TRUE
     STYLE
         8 12 8 12
     END
END

This migth be an alternative solution for
you.

Leonhard
