Abandoned rail line stuff (rails and crossbucks)

I have been having a running discussion with a county over abandoned railroad crossing equipment, rails etc.. and would like a little input from someone who might know an answer. <br /> <br /> I know of at least 80 miles of abandoned rail line that has not been used since the early 60's. This area has some crossing equipment still on it including some with flashing lights. At these crossings the road has entirely paved over the rails at least three times and there are trees one foot in diameter growing up between the rails. So safety is not a question. <br /> <br /> My question is who owns the stuff? The County says the rail line still does, but no one at the Big Yellow sponge answers any of my questions. Any ideas or people to contact.
