'''Railroads and Trails'''<br /> The Lafayette and Indianapolis Railroad line traversing Zionsville was owned and operated by a number of companies from its inception in 1852 until it was abandoned in 1976.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.abandonedrails.com/Lafayette_to_Indianapolis|title=Abandoned Rails: Lafayette to Indianapolis|website=www.abandonedrails.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.in.gov/indot/files/Rail_STBFilings.pdf|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210929232805/https://www.in.gov/indot/files/Rail_STBFilings.pdf|archive-date=September 29, 2021|title=Indiana Railroad Abandonments|access-date=August 10, 2023}}</ref> In the 1990s, Zionsville re-purposed portions of the former railroad line as a [[shared use path]]. It is currently known as Big-4 Rail Trail.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.indianapolismonthly.com/features/hot-on-the-trails-big-4-rail/|title=Hot On The Trails: Zionsville's Big-4 Rail Trail - Indianapolis Monthly|date=May 30, 2017}}</ref> The Rail Trail links various parks, neighborhoods, and points of interest throughout the town, including Heritage Park, Jennings Field, and Starkey Park, and is within walking distance of Mulberry Fields and the downtown village. The trail is surrounded by trees for most of its length. It is currently undergoing construction to expand its south end.
