Haliburton County
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The Victoria Railway line from Lindsay to Haliburton was decommissioned as a rail line in the 1980s and began a new life as a recreational rail trail. Today’s Haliburton County rail trail spans 34 kms from Kinmount to Haliburton Village. This report discusses making improvements to the Rail Trail for environmental sustainability, health, tourism, and associated community development in Haliburton, while also documenting the ‘value’ the existing trail brings to the community. Some potential improvements include proper signage, improving the trail surfacing to be more accessible, as well as promoting the trail in the community and planning for a safe multi-use environment.

Haliburton County
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
By considering the history of a portion of the abandoned Victoria Railway between Kinmount and Haliburton Village, the author states his case that there is a connection between the railway line and Haliburton County's search for community development in a bioregional context. From a look at the historical events surrounding the building of the Victoria Railway in the 1870s to the tearing up of the tracks in 1983 and 1984, the author moves on to a discussion of the Rails-to-Trails movement in general, outlining potential benefits associated with such a conversion in Haliburton. Such an initiative is presented in the context of several qualities integral to bioregionalism: the principles of bioregional economies, the actualization of ecological principles through protected spaces, and the regeneration of culture and community.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<p class="p1">This paper presents an historical overview of the two railway lines operating in the Haliburton area in the late 1880s, the Victoria Railway running from Lindsay to Haliburton, and the Irondale, Bancroft & Ottawa line running from Howland Junction to Bancroft.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Beginning with a look at the history and impact of railways in Canada, the history of Haliburton County, and railway construction in general, the author moves to an in-depth account of each line.<br /><br />Construction information is documented along with details of financing, problems faced, and portraits of each stop along the way.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Finally, the impact of each railway on the social and economic lives of the communities and later history is presented. The report concludes with recommendations for future use of the abandoned lines in ways which would continue to impact positively on both social and economic prosperity.</p>
