There is a similar situation near me on a 100 mile rail line that runs through Mendocino and Humboldt Counties through redwoods and tough terrain.
Making a trail out of it seems to be a good idea to me, but I can't get over the accepted wisdom that, while it was built 140 years ago, the technology does not now exist to repair all the landslides, washouts, caved tunnels and fallen bridges.
