Saratoga-North Creek Railroad tracks are going to auction
Interested rail operators and others are stepping forward
NORTH CREEK – The dormant 30-mile stretch of railroad tracks between this resort community and the old mining settlement of Tahawus may soon see freight trains once again, now that the tracks are set to be auctioned in March.
There’s already been one bid for the tracks – from Revolution Rail, which for the past several years has operated a rail-biking attraction in which tourists ride along the tracks in specially built carts with pedals.
