Rail Trail Then and Now
I was rooting around in my photos and came up with this one tagged: Methuen Rail Bed 2001: taken from the MSPCA dirt road which bisects the railbed. I matched it up from the series I shot last summer(2008), Clearly the shrubbery is making headway. Luckily the area north of the downtown area has fewer Saplings in the rail bed; it is mostly this low growth and invasive species. Areas south of the Wild Life Sanctuary have many more small trees guarding the tunnels and intersections. I wonder if we can find any older images of the trail.
