Interurban Car 55 is a restored trolley from this route, and is located at Heritage Park, east of Interstate 5 on Poplar Way in Lynnwood next to The Wickers Building, which is now the Transportation Museum. The building was originally located along the rail line and includes an exhibit on its history.[9]
Administration
[ edit ]
The trail is administered in three sections - Snohomish County, Everett , and Lynnwood . The Snohomish County PUD administers the section from Everett to Lynnwood.[10] Mountlake Terrace ,[7] Edmonds .[11]
Future alignments

On the northern portion of the trail, an overpass over Interstate 5 near 128th Street and an extension into downtown Everett was proposed.[10]
