The Cleveland Dinner & Event Train
You never have to worry about your Friday night plans again, because CVSR has you covered. From date night to a girl’s night out or a memorable evening with family and friends, we have something for everyone. If you’re celebrating or treating yourself to a night out “just because,” we have several excursions to choose from.
Every Friday night (with the exception of June 18), CVSR’s Cleveland Dinner & Event Train will host our signature dinner, beverage, and entertainment events. Head to our Independence Station and take a ride through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park as you enjoy your Friday on the rails.
Age requirements vary based on the excursion.
