Has anyone else noticed more Dogman sightings happening near old railroad lines?

Never really followed Dogman stuff closely but this caught my eye because I grew up near old B&O rail lines in WV and always heard stories about something big moving along the old corridors at night. My uncle swore he saw something upright on two legs near an old rail bridge outside Grafton back in the 80s and he wasnt a man who made things up.

The railroad angle is interesting though. Old lines follow natural terrain, valleys, tree lines, waterways. If something wanted to move around without being seen that'd be your route wouldnt it. Same reason deer and other wildlife still use them.

Has anyone actually mapped out specific sighting reports against old rail infrastructure? Feels like that could show a real pattern or just confirm we're looking for one. Either way worth doing. Anyone here done that kind of overlay work?

Interesting one this. I'm more of a Bigfoot person myself so I dont follow Dogman reports closely, but I do remember reading somewhere that old railway corridors act as natural wildlife channels - animals use them to move between areas because the vegetation is often cleared and its easier going. Whether that explains what people are seeing or just explains why something genuinely unusual might congregate there, I couldn't say. The WV sightings have always seemed credible to me from what little I've read. Warwickshire doesn't have much in the way of Dogman reports but we've got our own old rail lines and I've never heard anything particularly strange around them, so maybe it is a regional thing.

Not really my area but the rail line thing is interesting because we get similar stuff with ley lines and crop circle clusters over here - old pathways, animal tracks, whatever you want to call them, things seem to follow established routes. Whether thats a Dogman or something else entirely I couldnt say. Lincolnshire's got its own version of this with the old drover roads. Coincidence or pattern, hard to know.
