I was thinking those tracks looked abandoned....LOL
They actually look like some of the tracks I've seen of troop transport trains from WWII. Some of the tracks had grass right up to and through them.
I actually like that look... and the push cart rolls right through the weeds.
The grass will be removed when the rails are dug down to ground level, but it will grow right back again. I'm going for the old fashioned narrow gauge look with no raised roadbad or gravel ballast...
The ties will be totally below grade so that all you'll see will be just the rails.
