From Rails to Trails

Directed by Dan Protess

With Edward Norton, Howard Dean, Pete Buttigieg, Tommy Thompson and Peter Harnik

Edward Norton narrates the story of one of the most unlikely social movements in American history: the struggle to convert thousands of miles of abandoned railroads into trails for cycling and walking. Facing fierce opposition and legal challenges from private property owners, leaders fought to reclaim these corridors for the public, creating a national network of scenic, car-free paths.
