Casey Jones State Trail

The Casey Jones State Trail is a multi-use recreational rail trail in southwestern Minnesota, USA. Although it was one of the first Minnesota state trails to be established, it remains incomplete as three discontinuous sections. The trail is managed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. It traverses the rolling morainal landscape of the Coteau des Prairies, passing cropland interspersed with wooded ravines, remnant tallgrass prairie, and wetlands.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_trails/casey_jones/index.html )〕 The trail is named after railroad engineer Casey Jones, who famously sacrificed his life to lessen the severity of a 1900 train crash in Mississippi. Jones had no connections to Minnesota; the trail was named for him as it was the first abandoned railroad grade acquired by the state. The railroad was key to bringing settlers to the area in the late 19th century and for shipping their agricultural products to market.
==Description==
The Casey Jones State Trail is currently limited to three separate sections. The first section runs from the city of Pipestone due east for to the Pipestone/Murray county line. After a gap the trail resumes for a section leading into the town of Lake Wilson. These two sections have a natural surface. The third portion is a paved loop between End-O-Line Railroad Park & Museum in Currie and Lake Shetek State Park.〔 The full plan for the trail is a route from Split Rock Creek State Park to Pipestone to Lake Wilson to Slayton to Lake Shetek State Park to Walnut Grove. A spur would provide access to Pipestone National Monument. The plan calls for parallel tracks, one paved and one natural-surfaced, to accommodate horseback riding and snowmobiling as well as biking, in-line skating, and cross-country skiing.〔
