Bethania to Logan Village: Cycling the Forgotten Railway Before It's a Rail Trail!

This video documents what the Historical Bethania to Logan Village Railway line looks like now BEFORE it becomes a Rail Trail. Work has already commenced late 2024 and railway tracks have already been removed. I don't want it to be forgotten just how much overgrown this line has been allowed to become... it's a disgrace! But I'm hopeful that the new Rail Trail will become an integral part of our community allowing a safe recreational corridor along this historical railway line.
