Why can I not make a traditional Railroad symbol in ArcGIS Online ?

Question

I created a GIS in ArcGIS Pro 2.1.

It has a railroad symbol that looks like a traditional railroad symbol, a line with hash marks across it at a 90 degree angle. When I "Share" my GIS as a Web Map, ArcGIS pro tells me that it will not be able to make my railroad layer look like a railroad in ArcGIS Online.  I see the Web Map, and no railroad symbol is offered.

There has to be a simple workaround for this, isn't there ? A railroad is fairly basic.

Thanks for any help or insights - Have an excellent day.

Peace-

Keiran

Mark- Thanks for the suggestion. I gave it a go, but it put the railroad in the wrong place on the map. Have an excellent weekend.

Kieran,

Here is a workaround you could try.

In ArcGIS Pro add your Rail road lines.

On the Share tab click Web Layer and share your Rail Lines as a Vector Tile.

Once Published, you can add the Layer to your Web map.
