Default Extremely Dangerous...Be Careful

Not to belabor this discussion, but there are active trains running on the tracks. If you are on the tracks in the active sections, you really are taking your life in your hands. The trains have limited visibility in many sections and they can not stop very easily.

In the winter, the tracks are used for snowmobiling and x-country skiing as there are no trains or groomers. So, the only thing to watch out for is other users.

So, do not go on the tracks in sections where the trains are running. This is extremely dangerous. I don't want to read about anyone losing life or limb.
