thread_title: References

message: The article currently states (using the past and subjunctive) that "At the east end, a trailhead would be created at theChicago River."  Looking at the 606's own web page, map, FAQs etc., I can find no mention of the river, which is about 8 short-blocks and across rail tracks and an expressway from the east end of the trail.Kdammers (talk) 19:44, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Good catch! Some of the early materials from Friends of the Bloomingdale Trail called for an extension to the river (see the map at the bottom of this article and this brochure). The Bloomingdale right-of-way once included a crossing over the Union Pacific tracks east of the expressway, but I don't know whether that was removed recently, since the publication of those materials, or the Friends' map was in error.

message: There's a really great history here:

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The Wikipedia article on the trail in Atlanta says it is (or will be?) 22 miles long, which would make it longer than the 606.  Maybe there are some distinctions, though, that allow for the 606 to retain its title as the longest? `23:04, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
