Man, you sure couldda fooled me!
It just seems really weird that everyone ("railfans", no less!) seems to be so up in arms about a rail line and a trail peacefully coexisting alongside each other --- especially when that's EXACTLY what the intent of the 1976 Rails-To-Trails law is all about -- to preserve the corridor for possible re-use as a rail corridor.
This is what happens when the pro-trail people obtain more political clout than the pro-rail people. A blatant disregard for the law!
Amazing . . .
