Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, Akron Northside Station

The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad runs through the heart of Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Each trip is a different adventure filled with fun, excitement, natural beauty, and historic sites. Trips include shorter excursions, all day adventures with side-trips to area attractions, and special events. You'll ride in comfortable, vintage coaches built between 1939 and 1940 that originally saw passenger service on the Seaboard and Santa Fe Railroads. A baggage car can carry your bicycle for a one-way trip on the train followed by a return bicycle trip on the Towpath Trail.
