« ... de la ville de Farnham,
en passant par Granby et Waterloo jusqu'à Danville,
la véloroute des Cantons-de-l'Est, c'est 225 km de superbe piste cyclable... »

This is a curious piece of railway which seems unconnected at both ends. Is it the remnants of an old line or a lovely piece of avant-garde sculpture.

Whatever, it looks great.

to sithenah,
It is at the main hub of the multiuse trail in the town of Granby, Québec, Canada. Several years ago the railroad right-of-ways were converted into trails, and the vélogare is situated where the train station used to be. The original buildings were in such a state of disrepair that a new building had to be erected, but the old style was kept. The short pieces of rail were kept as a reminder of the original purpose.
