The Mountain Division Rail Use Advisory Council has made their recommendation for the future use of the rail line. The proposal is to convert the rail to a pedestrian/bikeway until any future need for rail is determined. See the following story from News Center Maine regarding this project: www.newscentermaine.com/video/news/maine-group-looking-to-convert-old-railroad-tracks-into-trail/97-c657d868-3ceb-4b6a-b4ec-da385168f8c1
