Maine Looking At Uses For Old Rail-beds
The State of Maine will take a look at new, useful purposes for old state-owned rail-beds that are not in use.
According to WABI, Gov. Mills signed a law that has the Maine Department of Transportation look at how those unused rail-beds could have a new life.
Great idea! Let's see…already made, extensive, well-built trails that run through various parts of Maine…whatever could be done with that?
I see so many recreational opportunities there for these, biking, hiking, cross-country skiing; maybe some could connect areas for snowmobilers or ATV riders…there is so much possibility. I would think the hard part is the money to take an old rail-bed and reimagine it. While a lot of the work is done, it would still require a lot of work.
I am looking forward to what comes of this idea.
