i was told in maryland anything within 25' of tracks is property of railroad company even junk thats been dumped..... someone dumped a big ass fiberglass boat near tracks in our area. me and partner were considering tearing out what we could for scrap( 2 motors, electrical components, some aluminum and steel) but it looked like it was most likely stolen and for some reason dumped we decided it was best to keep our greedy palms off it....
