Openrailway is a bit more technical product than World Train Map. The goal of World Train Map is to have a good selection of almost all passenger rail routes around the world, where the user can hover over each route to get a quick story.
The tracing on World Train Map is based on OSM and I am thankful for both their tracings and the community which has corrected this project. Most casual users like me are not interested in signals or the technical stuff about the line, but rather simpler technical details such as speed, average speed and where you can take the route from and to.
Besides OSM is really all rail routes, while World Train Map is only passenger service.
