How about a kind of sub-structure:
<speedProfile>
...
<AppliesForRoute>
ocpRef=
ocpRef=
...
</AppliesForRoute>
</speedProfile>
The <AppliesForRoute> is a container for as much ocpRef's as necessary, at
least two. (So far, I can't imagine that it depends on more than two ocp's
but anyway, we were not sure about this when we had that discussion.)
The order of the several ocpRef's doesn't matter. A train has to pass all
of them for the speed profile to apply.
We could shorten the element name simply to <route>.
Dirk.

Dear railML users,
At the railML conference in Berlin, another term ("path") was proposed
for the child element "route". The renaming may be done in a short-term,
if we get some fast feedback. (Look at the bottom of this thread.)

Nobody up to now responded to this proposal and implementation!
I summarized the renaming idea in Trac ticket #226. [2]
During the last railML conference (2013-03-06) in Berlin the term
route in a speed profile was questioned.
This child element is for indicating special speed profiles between
different neighbouring ocps no matter that the train uses one and the
same infrastructure (e.g. tracks, switches). (see also #41 for
implementation purposes)
Another term may be "path" that clearly distances from the
IXL-specific "route".
* A "path" is more seen as a runway.
* A "route" is more seen as a secured runway.
From "GLOSSARY OF RAILROAD OPERATION AND CONTROL" (1):
ROUTE
A path through an interlocking, along which an authorized movement
is to be made.

Any comments* appreciated.
Kind regards...
