Where has rail been ripped up? I've never heard
of that happening. Is
it a national trend?

A lot of track has been abanoned and ripped up in Texas. We have a lot
of new bike and jogging trails as a result.

This does beg the question... Who exactly is paying for this, and to
what gain? I think someone's point of it not really being cost-
effective (even for the scrap) is worth investigating. Maybe it is.
I can't imagine it's more expensive to produce a ton of steel from
salvaged rails than it is to do the same from iron ore.
Still, it'd be interesting to know who's fronting the labor to do it,
and what money is backing it.
