We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of The Hidden Railroads yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about The Hidden Railroads
It seems someone built a supercool railroad in the middle of the forest. 👏🏽 Plus some toys here and there to add a fabled allure to the environment Young and so young kids love it of course 😄 there are several planks placed here and there, I guess because it can get muddy .

Wooded 200-acre park with an intricate tangle of moderate biking trails & an unusual train trestle.
