[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Modelcar</i> <br /><br />....I can't imagine any active railroad would EVER agree with a stupid idea like that. I remember several years ago down in the Orlando area they were [probably still are], fighting about installng a light rail system and considered running it along side CSX in the area and the word flared up that the railroad would never adhere to such a plan as it would be too dangerous....And that was another rail transit plan...not a walking path..! <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />They won't voluntarily. his idea has come up in areas where governmental agencies control or own the ROW and are in a position to impose this as a condition of operating the line or an outside group is attempting to assert that because the government owns or controls the ROW they have an obligationo to provide public access for a trail, regardless of the risks... <br /> <br />LC
