How bout a R click/menu function that'd bring up a dialog of just the 
current stations - along side of each a sample of their particular 
traack color (and type if implimented). Then, it'd be nice to be able to 
double click on a station in that dialog and have only that track show 
on the map. Quick undo for revert to normal. Simialr kinda idea to the 
feature request I filed earlier this week.

Of course, if the track goes off the current view, no joy. Mmm, maybe a 
margin with station calls? Kinda like a highway map where the roads go 
off the map....

If it's workable and usefull - cool, otherwise I'm just rambling.
