Mountain Railroad Half Marathon
We are excited to announce the second annual Mountain Railroad Half Marathon! The course for this race follows a portion of
the H&BT Rail Trail. This trail originally was part of the railroad owned by
Huntingdon & Broad Top Mountain Railroad & Coal Company.
The railroad was built for the purpose of moving coal to market from the mines in the Broad Top mountain region.
For a more detailed history of both the original railroad and the rail trail, visit Rails to Trails of Bedford County
