What We Do
read moreIn 1916 railroad transportation was at its peak. At that time, railroads were our main source of transportation. They hauled food to market, moved coal to heat cities, and carried settlers to the Western frontier. Railroads also helped win World War II. But, in the 1970's other modes of transportation-like trucking-took over. Because of this, many railroads went bankrupt and carriers began abandoning rail lines at an alarming rate. Because rail corridors have gentle grades and often follow rivers and scenic landscapes, the possibility of creating trails from rail lines for recreation and nonmotorized transportation became an opportunity and a solution.
