I've never understood the appeal of RR ROW trails, they're so boring.

Well, to me the obvious answer is that it is the only land available.
It lends itself to multiple use paths since there are already overpasses
built, etc. Because it is a MUP, ours is cluttered with ambling
walkers, people walking pets and generally not respecting an open lane
for faster traffic. Even though I can go 7 miles to downtown with two
stops on a MUP, if the weather's nice it is more hazardous than the
streets because of all the slower traffic.
