Rimutaka Rail Trail - Future

Future

In 2011 the Rimutaka Incline Railway Heritage Trust put forward a proposal to reinstate the railway line over the Rimutaka Ranges. It was withdrawn in February 2012. The proposal was to incorporate all of the former railway formation that currently comprises the rail trail.

The plan meant laying of new track would occur in the future. The trust has worked on stage one of their plan, which involves the development of facilities at Maymorn. Later stages include the development of alternative facilities for current users of the rail trail prior to the laying of track.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    A fixed image of the future is in the worst sense ahistorical.
    Juliet Mitchell (b. 1940)

    I will be steel!
    I will build a steel bridge over my need!
    I will build a bomb shelter over my heart!
    But my future is a secret.
    It is as shy as a mole.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The past is of no importance. The present is of no importance. It is with the future that we have to deal. For the past is what man should not have been. The present is what man ought not to be. The future is what artists are.
    The facts: nothing matters but the facts: worship of the facts leads to everything, to happiness first of all and then to wealth.
    Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)
