Typically, routemaps should be created to represent the ROS route reasonably accurately, even if this means some junctions in real life are excluded.

There are three types of station included in the BSIcons, shown on the right. It is suggested they are used as follows:

* INT: Interchange station - used where the route interchanges with several others (not necessarily part of the ROS route), or for very large stations. Typically only a few will appear on each routemap, however maps for metro routes, such as the London Underground, may have many more.

* INT: Interchange station - used where the route interchanges with several others (not necessarily part of the RailOS route), or for very large stations. Typically only a few will appear on each routemap, however maps for metro routes, such as the London Underground, may have many more.

* BHF: Large stations - typically used for stations where services regularly terminate, or pass each other. Can also be used for stations where the majority or all services stop. Optionally, they can be used on single track branches to denote stations with passing points, if you do not wish to use the specific passing place station icons. Additionally, terminus stations will typically be a BHF where they're not already an INT.

=== Naming Continuations ===

=== Naming Continuations ===

For continuations to other lines, if the line has a name (eg. Portsmouth Direct Line, East Coast Main Line), it would be ideal to use this as the visible text. Otherwise, use the next large or well-known station along the route (this should also be used if the line name is generic, such as Reading - Exeter Line). Where an ROS route exists for the line beyond this continuation, it should be linked.

For continuations to depots or sidings, the name of the location should be used, and nothing is required to be linked.
