Book Your Experience

Sit back and relax on a scenic ride as the train weaves through Cuyahoga Valley and races along with the rushing Cuyahoga River or dine on one of our historic railcars and in the dome of a California Zephyr car, “the most talked-about train in America.”

No matter who you are or what your interests are, we truly have something for everyone.

The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad is a not-for-profit preservation railroad operating through the Cuyahoga Scenic Valley National Park.  While we do our very best to ensure our fleet is always running smoothly, breakdowns can happen in addition to activities and programs within the park system that can affect our excursions.   Please be aware that cancellations can occur when booking your tickets. Please double-check check day of your excursion to be sure your station and departure time is unchanged.
