I was just in Japan and even some of their active rail lines have huge 4 ft tall weeds growing in the rail yards

Weed control is a fairly new thing but not an environmentally friendly thing. Maybe Japan doesn't like spraying pesticide all around.

Wouldn't surprise me. In Germany the largest customer for Roundup/Glyphosate is DB, they spray that shit over around all rails.
