Indeed ... : Micheline Nilsen <[log in to unmask]> writes (I should have 
quoted this the first time - much more explicit than my rememberance:

"For a paper on gardens adjoining railways, I would be interested in
any instances of gardens on or near railway lands in the US or
Western Europe you may be aware of. Also, any literature, even
unscholarly, would be welcome."

I asked her what she meant by a garden, and it includes the full run 
from the allotment to the landscaped parkland, via the cemetery (I 
commute to work on what was once the Necropolis Railway!).

Cheers,

Pat
