That article says the first completed section is 10' wide X 1.1 miles long. Believe a fire truck is either 8 or 8 1/2 ' wide so that would be a good challenge trying to drive that in a fire truck. After Section 1, Section 2 is probably next, and then after that comes Section 3.......yeah, that seems like it's the way to go.
South Down Shore.....here it comes....oh....it will be coming around the mountain when it comes....it will be coming around the mountain when it comes...everyone will be sing'n & danc'n....and it will be coming around that South Down Shore mountain when it comes.....all together now...yee-haw! ...

Today's April 8 LaDaSun has an article on the recently built 1.1 mile section in Laconia and relates a conversation between a WOW Trail supporter and Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter. Apparently, the 5' high chain link fence that is required by the State of NH for safety reasons is not wanted by either the WOW Trail supporters or the South Down Shore residents; neither group wants it or feels it is needed, and are hoping the congresswoman can help to remedy this very sticky situation.
Here's my solution; build a bow-wow style, invisible fence and have all WOW Trail users wear invisible fence, doggie collars when traveling the WOW Trail. Get too close to that railroad track and you catch a good strong electric zap into yor neck.....arf....arf......eeeooooooowie.....ouch... ...ouch!
No more ugly fence.....problemo solved!
