Why are there two different sets of mile markers along the Yough River Trail North?
When the Regional Trail Corporation acquired the 43-mile right-of-way from the P&LE Railroad, most of the original mile markers were in place. MM0 is in front of Pittsburgh’s Station Square, and each mile marker counts the number of miles from Station Square. The WYTC’s section of trail covers MM31-MM42. The other set of mile markers counts miles of the Great Allegheny Passage. MM0 is in Cumberland, MD. You will see MM 105-116 on WYTC’s section.
