Rail Right-of-Way

Because of population growth and urban/suburban development – among many other factors – railroad right-of-way issues are continually evolving (or devolving, in the case of rails-to-trails programs). This evolution is not confined to classic railroads, either: the changes in mass transit – light rail, for example – visit new transportation modes with familiar challenges.
