I was gonna say, driving up the highway, I could see lots of the ROW, but it wasn't like an American railtrail. Several of the bridges are gone, which, at 70mph, look kinda impassible (on foot). There were lots of bridge abutments, which I really like, as a ROW marker. I had pictures, but I can't find them.
