The bike trail through Oberlin is like a trip back in time. The city is rich in Underground Railroad history. From this hiding spot, you can see the old train depot and across the street is the historic Gasholder Building structure, which is being restored as the future home of the Underground Railroad Center. The structure will serve as a visitors center and a park and ride facility for cyclists. The brick road you are standing at is part of the bike trail.
