That small detail made our ride feel surprisingly social and fun. At 914 feet long, this historic railroad tunnel is one of the most memorable moments of the entire ride. Mount Savage was the site of the nation’s first iron rail forge, which makes every mile of this ride feel historically loaded. The tracks are also shared with the Western Maryland Scenic Railway, a heritage railroad that still operates steam and diesel excursions. Riding through it quietly on a rail-bike makes that history feel personal rather than textbook.
