Hello I have downloaded a large shapefile dataset of UK rivers and I want
to isolate (as an ordinary R string) the LINESTRING values for particular
lines, corresponding to rivers

Looking at the first line I can isolate the geometry by



st_geometry(rivers[1,8])



Geometry set for 1 feature
Geometry type: LINESTRING
Dimension:     XYZ
Bounding box:  xmin: 462010.6 ymin: 1213039 xmax: 462306.5 ymax: 1213199
z_range:       zmin: 0 zmax: 0
Projected CRS: OSGB 1936 / British National Grid

LINESTRING Z (462306.5 1213048 0, 462275.4 1213...


What I need is all the values in the LINESTRING as a common or garden R
vector, but I cannot find a way to do this.

 Does anyone know how?  Thanks, Nick Wray
