Maybe, but it looks like a great way to spend a summer.
Sorry, I just get triggered when everyone talks up rails-to-trails and then winds up on the federal parkland C&O towpath, that doesn't uphold the R2T principle and doesn't require any work on their part.
We had a thread on ^that trail proposal earlier this summer - the best part looks to be Montana-across-Idaho; that's already ready for you to ride.
Unfortunately the grey zones are not even planned yet. Vaporware.
In that same thread, we discussed projects like this :

until you realise how much time you will be spending on 2 lane no-shoulder roads, the only provision for bikes being Share the Road signs every 5-6 miles, if that. Bureaucratic slight of hand to pander at a lowest level.
One of my projects this summer has been to scout sections of the other local-to-me bureaucratic creation - the East Coast Greenway
https://www.greenway.org/route-map Yeah. Giant steaming pile of wishful thinking and signage, and it takes less than 20 minutes avoiding speeding SUVs on Lanham-Severn road to prove it. So the project is to find alternate, safer, neighborhood routes that don't need bureaucrats or official signage, just RWGPS.
Also doesn't count as a rail trail, but herself wants to see it and it looks like Richmond will be cooler this w/e than DC, so
