Rail-Trail Council

Rail-Trail Council The Rail-Trail Council of Northeastern Pennsylvania is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation begun in 1991 to attempt the purchase of local abandoned railbeds.

It began as a very small grass-roots organization and now has over 1400 members and supporters. The RTC is located trailside along our D&H rail trail in Union Dale at 948 North Main Street, next to the Cables General Store. In our short history, we have acquired 38 miles of the historic Delaware & Hudson railbed, and we have an easement to use 8 miles of the parallel Ontario & Western railbed as a

recreational trail. We are also working on improving the 10-mile Endless Mountains Trail in Montrose, PA. For more information about us and our trails, please visit www.neparailtrails.org
