There’s this weird little sliver of land behind my property that was once owned by a now defunct railroad. When the railroad pulled out they tried to offer these parcels to all the land owners who’s rural lots back up to this stretch of rail road owned land. No one bought in. We all collectively take care of the parcels, just so they don’t go to shit, but there is nothing stopping someone from settling back there and claiming it, other than I have a gun and a backhoe.
