Wasn't there a project a while back to add local highway shield symbols to OpenStreetMap? What happened to that?

Still just plain rectangles with text.

That would be Americana. It's not part of OSM itself (yet?), but you can see it here
- @WeirdAlex03 @NateNate60 IMO OSM Americana is part of OSM.
  
  The OSM Project is a large and fuzzy thing 🙂
  
  *Not part of OSM.org, I should have said, it's not one of the map layer options. You're right, it is under the larger OSM umbrella
I'm not sure if this should be added to osm. E.g. OrganicMaps adds local subway icons from outside osm, another renderer could just pair the country and highway level to an external list of icons the same way.

For reference here is the svg files in OrganicMaps source, just scroll down to the ones starting with subway-: https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/tree/master/data/styles/clear/style-clear/symbols
