Hi, <br />I traveled on the I-90 west from Livingston, MT to Seattle in 2003, and saw many stretches of what I believe used to be Milwaukee Road Right of Way used as Bicycle paths, what a shame. I also saw some abandoned ( and obviously Railroad ) bridges in the distance with what looked like supports for the former catenary wires still on them. I travel a lot and always look for abandoned rail lines, since there are a lot of them, and just about want to cry. I guess the next major bike path project is going to be Tennessee Pass. I was lucky to see that in 1996 or 1997 with trains still going over it, just before they ceased operations. In my humble opinion the abandonment of Tennessee Pass was a stupid idea by S.P., as was the abandonment of the Valley Line in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles. <br />Harry Kutzbach, Train Nut <br />Simi Valley, CA , hkutz1602@sbcglobal.net
