Just to add some info: in France many (no idea of how many, but I have anecdotally seen many) train lines have been repurposed to bike tracks, with a speed up in the recent years.

this is true for my area, though I do wish the train was still in service. I have no way of getting to the main rail hub in my area except by driving, or taking the bus. and the bus sucks donkey dicks around here.
