Scenic RailRiders Seeks State Support to Sustain Pedal-Powered Rail Bike Operations

November 8, 2025 - 18:27

Scenic RailRiders is calling on state officials to step in and purchase the rail corridor that has been crucial to their pedal-powered bike business. The company, which offers unique rail bike experiences along picturesque routes, is facing uncertainty due to proposed expansions of the Greenway Trail. These developments could potentially disrupt the scenic routes that attract both locals and tourists alike.

The owners of Scenic RailRiders argue that the rail corridor is not only vital for their operations but also serves as an important recreational asset for the community. By acquiring the corridor, the state could help preserve this unique form of transportation and recreation, ensuring that families and adventure seekers can continue to enjoy the beautiful landscapes from a different perspective.

As discussions unfold, Scenic RailRiders remains hopeful that state intervention will lead to a solution that benefits both the business and the community, allowing them to thrive in the face of changing infrastructure plans.
