context_page_description: The Bristol and Bath Railway Path is a 15-mile off-road cycleway, part of National Cycle Network National Cycle Route 4. It has a 3-metre wide tarmacked surface, and was used for 2.4 million trips in 2007, increasing by 10% per year.
  It was built by the cycling charity Sustrans between 1979 and 1986, which leased a five-mile stretch near Saltford, with the help of the then Avon County Council, and using volunteers turned it into its first cycleway.
context_section_description: Mangotsfield railway station 51.4757°N 2.4830°W was on the Midland Railway Bristol and Gloucester main line, the junction for the Mangotsfield and Bath Branch Line to Bath Green Park railway station. It had six platforms.
  The disused Bristol and Gloucester route to Yate now provides a spur from the railway path northwest to the Bristol ring road cycle path and Emersons Green.
  The  remaining island platforms have railway-related sculptures between them, some depicting waiting passengers. One notable sculpture was that of a suitcase, supposedly belonging to one of the passengers. However, it disappeared in the summer of 2008.
