Surface is crushed gravel. The Mammoth Cave Railroad carried passengers and freight between the main L&N line at Park City, Kentucky and Mammoth Cave from the 1880s until about 1930. About 40% of the grade was obliterated by highway construction in the 1960s. Engine #4 and a combination coach are displayed at the original terminus. Funding provided by the National Park Service and a grant from the National park Concessions. Volunteers did the ground work of trimming and making a wide path. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/album04 19467d5737c5c4848c20510f7e4eca17 Sun, 11 May 2008 16:40:26 -0400 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/view_comments.php?set_albumName=album04 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/album04/Camp_Springs_Fire_Station.thumb.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/album04/Camp_Springs_Fire_Station.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/album04/Camp_Springs_Fire_Station.thumb.jpg The residents of Camp Springs plan to build a 30-mile trail for bicycling, walking, and jogging. It will connect Camp Springs with Silver Grove and Melbourne. Camp Springs is in northern Campbell County about 3.5 miles from the Ohio River, and 15 miles from downtown Cincinnati. It is one of the very few undeveloped parts of Campbell County, and the residents are strongly committed to keeping their rural community rural. The trail will give them easy access to a safe place to exercise, recreate, and possibly, commute. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/2008relay 05a7c5a34ddcc0d370479c4a0fed6dae Wed, 7 May 2008 18:33:20 -0400 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/view_comments.php?set_albumName=2008relay http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/2008relay/Bike_relay_draft.thumb.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/2008relay/Bike_relay_draft.sized.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/2008relay/Bike_relay_draft.thumb.jpg Details for the 2008 Cycling Relay between Ashland and Lexington are in links on the homepage of the KRTC website. This is a National Trail Day Event on Saturday, May 31st, 2008. The ride is to promote the development of multi-use trails throughout the state and specifically the creation of a continuous railtrail over the abandoned 106 mile CSX railroad corridor between Lexington and Ashland. The relay will follow county roads close to the corridor and in a few places be on the corridor or adjacent to it. The relay will start at 7 AM at Princess in Boyd County and end at Pleasant Ridge Park, 1350 Pleasant Ridge Drive in eastern Fayette County. The distance of the cycling relay is 133 miles and can be completed with a road bike. Greeters and support people will be needed along the route. If you want to volunteer or help sponsor the ride please contact Dixie Moore at dixiemoore@insightbb.com.

The ride was organized by local horseback riders to show the feasibility of using the railroad corridor being abandoned by R.J. Corman in Breathitt, Johnson and Magoffin Counties to create the Big Lovely Mountain Trail as a multi use non motorized trail. By all accounts, the ride went extremely well with over 100 riders in attendance. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/winchestertrail 41f5eed863061c6490c6e822293c2f91 Thu, 10 Apr 2008 21:06:04 -0400 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/view_comments.php?set_albumName=winchestertrail http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/winchestertrail/2008_04_09_0018.thumb.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/winchestertrail/2008_04_09_0018.sized.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/winchestertrail/2008_04_09_0018.thumb.jpg The Winchester Traveling Trail was dedicated April 9th at the corner of Colby Road and the Bypass on commercial property owned by Clark Medical Center.

The relay is 130 miles and followed county roads closest to the corridor and in a few places was on the 105 mile long abandoned corridor. The ride start was changed to Winchester at 9:30 AM instead of from Lexington because of rain at 8 AM. Three riders did ride from Lexington to Winchester. The riders on the first leg were asked to turn back a third of the way between Winchester and Mt. Sterling because of heavy rain, however three riders chose to go on to Mt.Sterling to complete the leg; two because they had left their vehicles in Mt. Sterling and had to get to them. It cleared up almost as soon as the first group started to head back and we have clear but cloudly weather the rest of the way. The relay made it to Rush by 7 pm. The relay had two incidents, one flat tire and one rider had to take the ditch due to inconsiderate driving. The relay was planned to meet up with the Eastern Hill Saddle Club St. Jude Ride along the old corridor east of Olive Hill. The proposed railtrail would be capable of being used by bicycles, horses and walkers. Thanks to the riders and all the support people. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/relay-06-11-05 027641d8973ea201f4c5a8a8c3d28372 Tue, 8 Apr 2008 14:05:54 -0400 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/view_comments.php?set_albumName=relay-06-11-05 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/relay-06-11-05/DSCF0625.thumb.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/relay-06-11-05/DSCF0625.sized.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/relay-06-11-05/DSCF0625.thumb.jpg The Kentucky Rails to Trails Council hosted a bicycle relay ride from Lexington to Ashland as a National Trail Day Activity on June 11, 2005. The purpose of the ride was to promote the development of the abandoned CSX railway between Lexington and Ashland into a continuous railtrail. The relay started at the Pleasant Ridge Park in Fayette County (approximate mile post 637.1) and ended at mile post 532.8 in Rush, one mile from the Boyd County line. The distance over the railroad corridor is 105 miles. The estimated distance of the cycling relay over nearby county and state roads was 130 miles. 30 riders took part as well as an equal number of support people. Local ham radio clubs provided coverage for most of the ride. The relay was done at an average pace of 15-17 mph on paved roads and 12 mph in eastern Carter County where sections of road closest to the corridor are unpaved. The first riders left Lexington at 8:00 AM. and the last riders arrived in Rush at 7: 15 PM. The first 2/3s of the ride was done in intermittent drizzle and light rain. Thanks to all who may the ride safe and a success. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/relay2007 941d69d20cd44d2c7a67acc98a0960b2 Tue, 8 Apr 2008 14:04:21 -0400 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/view_comments.php?set_albumName=relay2007 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/relay2007/070609_0726_35.thumb.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/relay2007/070609_0726_35.sized.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/relay2007/070609_0726_35.thumb.jpg The third Lexington to Ashland Cycling relay to promote the building of the Lexington Big Sandy Railtrail and other multi use trails in the state was a successful and safe event.

Hall Community Center in Saylersville. The Big Sandy Area Development District held the meetings to give information and to get public input on the proposed rail trail project along the Dawkins Line in Johnson, Magoffin and Breathitt Counties. Several RT supporters from the cycling, hiking and horseback riding community attended the meetings. Information was provided, many questions were asked and opinions both for and against the creation the trail were expressed. The 36 mile ROW owned by R.J. Corman that is railbanked starts at Evanston in Breathitt County, runs south of Salyersville in Magoffin County and ends at West Van Lear in Johnson County near Paintsville. More information about the trail can be found in the January and April 2005 newsletters , vol 8. no 1 & 2. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/news.php. http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/railtrails-in-KY 3dcf52e399bc16e05027351bd8368aaf Wed, 3 Oct 2007 19:10:10 -0400 http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/view_comments.php?set_albumName=railtrails-in-KY http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/railtrails-in-KY/mom_daughters.thumb.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/railtrails-in-KY/mom_daughters.sized.jpg http://www.kyrailtrail.org/gallery/albums/railtrails-in-KY/mom_daughters.thumb.jpg Pictures of completed sections of railtrails in Kentucky.

The Linear Park section goes East-West 5.5 miles; 2.3 miles into Downtown, and another 3.2 miles, past French Park and the Hydraulic Canal Path, to its West terminus. The Hydraulic Canal Path goes along a former man-made canal, with remains of its locks. The Rivers Edge Section starts under the Downtown bridge over the Great Miami River and heads Northwest along the river.
