On this day in 1988 - The W&OD Trail was "completed", when the 9 mile section from Leesburg to Purcellville opened. The $10 million project took 10 years to build and included a 30 mile bridle path. The trail was billed as one of the longest on the East Coast.

Check out the new PBS documentary "From Rails to Trails," the fascinating story of the national movement to "recycle" abandoned railroad right-of-way into new trails. @NOVA_Parks is the proud caretaker of the 45-mile W&OD, featured in this story. https://t.co/05WYJGgfPq
