<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 13, 2012) A local advocacy group is trying to highlight the possible economic benefits of a year-round, multi-use recreational trail between Lake Placid and Old Forge. The Adirondack Recreational Trail Advocates hosted a meeting at the Harrietstown Town Hall in Saranac Lake on Wednesday to unveil a new study on the potential economic impact of the group’s proposed Adirondack Recreational Trail.More than 100 people attended the presentation, which focused on the first stage of the would-be trail: the 34-mile span between Lake Placid and Tupper Lake. As Chris Morris reports, the group, known as ARTA, is spending less time talking about the Adirondack Scenic Railroad and is instead focusing on the benefits of the trail.

<description><![CDATA[ (Jan 26, 2011) A new study released last night in Tupper Lake is raising questions about the future of the Adirondack Scenic Railroad.  The non-profit tourist train already carries thousands of passengers every year between Lake Placid and Saranac Lake.The company hopes to expand that service soon to include the route to Tupper Lake.But backers of the new report say state and local officials should also consider tearing up the tracks and building a multi-use trail for bicycles and snowmobiles.Brian Mann has our story.
