A rails-to-trails project in PA, it
opens to the public next month.
“An anonymous donor bid $1,576 for the right to be the first to ride a
bicycle through the newly restored Big Savage Tunnel, but plans to
give the ride away as a gift.”

Then looks like the WMRR Scenic is finished?
The WMSRR runs from Cumberland to Frostburg in Maryland. The Big Savage tunnel is in PA. There are trails along part of the WMSRR ROW in Maryland on the Frostburg end but it looks like the WMSRR and the trail folks have developed a basis for coexistence. The WMSRR will begin this year’s operations on May 6.
