My brother worked as a highway engineer in MN, in one of the outstate regions. He once referred to these converted RR right-of-way walks as ‘rape trails’, as they give a false sense of isolation and security.

I live a couple miles from a rail trail and put in 100 to 250 miles a week on it. Bicycle, not foot. :)

Goes thru some of what are euphemistically referred to as “bad neighborhoods.” Wouldn’t recommend it for a woman by herself.
