A new company with a mission to save the Casino to Murwillumbah railway line will host public meetings at Lismore and Casino this month.
Northern Rivers Rail Ltd is a not-for-profit company which has been registered to help get trains back on the tracks.
Secretary Lydia Kindred said there was “widespread concern” about plans for a rail trail and what that would mean for the future of train services.
Public meetings will be held at the Casino RSM on Wednesday, February 10, from 6pm, and at the Lismore Workers Club on Wednesday, February 17, from 6pm.
“One very environmentally-sound option that many are advocating for are recycled plastic raised cycle/walking paths, to be built beside the railroad tracks,” Ms Kindred said.
