Hi! Gun-n-gal

Welcome to the forum, I`m sure you will enjoy loitering here.

By rails to trails do you mean redundant railway lines that have been converted into recreation paths for cycling/walking ,living in England i`m not to sure of your American terminology, if so we have several such routes in my area .
Many of the old railway lines are now being converted by an orginisation called sustrains here in the U.K. They are doing a splendid job eventually hoping to criss-cross most of the country with the conversion of the old railway system that befell the ruthless closing down of many rural train services in the late 1950/60`s by a goverment Minister called Beeching known eversince as the Beeching axe, at least it is now providing us with some exellent fun cycling.

Regards Willi`c
