#FALSE Tracks and the property directly adjacent too is owned by the railway, they don’t want you on or near the tracks.

Lived 20 years near a RR and never knew that. A kid did lose his leg trying to hop a train. He was always a kid doing stupid stuff like that but even after that no one ever mentioned walking the tracks was illegal I used the side from riding my horse thru town.
