Re: Significant part of former LIRR Wading River Branch to become rail trail

The segment between Dover Plains and Wassaic was not part of the trail, IIRC. That had track on it all the way to 1997, when work began on restoration of service.

I'm pretty sure no rail trail has ever been re-activated for rail service in North America. Which is why I'm puzzled as to why NJT continues to keep alive the "Matawan Alignment" version of it's proposed MOM line. Much of the CNJ Freehold branch was trailed only a few years ago.
