What are some examples of rails and trails safely coexisting?
The Rails-to-Trails Conservancy recently reported that there are more than 60 cases of trails coexisting with rail operations in 30 states nationwide. These “Rails-with-Trails,” defined as bicycle/pedestrian paths located directly adjacent to active railroad corridors, vary in characteristics from a few slow-moving freight trains to high-frequency commuter trains traveling as fast as 150 miles per hour.
