Show Notes
Five Iowa cities aim to preserve a 12.2-mile railroad line for a future recreational trail. By filing a petition, they initiate railbanking, keeping the corridor intact for potential trail use without immediate upfront costs. The route, known as the Grimes Line, could connect neighborhoods and boost outdoor access, with potential annual savings for cities like Urbandale on road crossing maintenance.
