From the Winnipesaukee Scenic Railroad website, here's a map .....
www.hoborr.com/map/ ...... showing their 9-mile route from Laconia to Weirs Beach to Meredith as it runs along the shoreline of Paugus Bay, Weirs Bay, and Meredith Bay.
Here's what looks like a two person bicycle style pedal cart that rolls over the tracks on four railroad wheels; a railroad pedal wagon, or something? Maybe it is a four person, pedal cart?

www.hoborr.com/rail-bike-adventures/ ...... so, how about this? ....... never seen one of these rail-pedal-carts before?
Today is January 21, 2021 and there is little to no snow on these train tracks right now, plus there has not been a train on the tracks for many months, like since June, 2020. If it were a 12'-wide, soft gravel rail trail, it could have been used by the public for walking and bicycling all these many months during the pandemic.
As it is now, it's a TOTALLY unused single railroad track! .....

Here's a similar rail-cart-pedal venue .....
http://www.essexsteamtrain.com/exper.../rail-bike-2/# ...... from Essex, Connecticut which has more information about these new-fangled pedal carts.
These carts remind me of that old Wile E Coyote cartoon where the coyote gets run over by a railroad utility cart, or something? So, what happens when you meet another pedal cart that's coming the other way, directly down the rails into your cart ...... ha-ha-ha? .....
So's ...... it's probably a very good thing there's no REAL freight or passenger trains on this track otherwise these rail-pedal-carts could have a very large problem ......... sneer-sneer-sneer-
