Notes:
1. The Mile Marker column uses the old railroad mile marker system, and matches the mile marker signs you'll see on the trail. But your actual mileage, as seen in the Distance along Trail column, will not always match the Mile Marker column because the trail does not always precisely follow the old railroad route.

2. Since

Shuttle Services generally serve the entire trail, they might not be associated with any particular town - or might be located outside of your planned route. In these cases, they are included at the end of the list, after the end point

3. The distance measurements begin at the trailhead of Machens and end at the trailhead of Clinton, but you may see some businesses listed beyond the trailheads of these towns. We try to list all the types of businesses you requested at all towns along your route, even if you would have to travel beyond the starting or ending trailhead to get there.

What's missing? If you know of a service along the trail that's missing from our database, please let us know.
