INDEPENDENCE, Ohio — The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad is back on track with its flagship ride, National Park Scenic, returning to its regular schedule this weekend.
In March 2022, the railroad announced repairs were needed due to significant erosion along part of the Cuyahoga River near the railroad tracks. As a result, the CVSR was limited to 16 miles each trip compared to its full 52-mile trip with departures only from Rockside Station. “It’s been devastating for us,” said President and CEO, Joe Mazur. “We came out of the pandemic, we’re ready to roll, and all of a sudden this happens.”“They have put what’s called rip rap [which] are huge boulders, huge rocks along the riverbank to stop it from coming closer to the rail. So, it was a huge undertaking,” he said.
Mazur says the rails have been tested and deemed safe. Their train will begin to run five days a week, Wednesday through Sunday, with trips departing from the railroad’s three main boarding stations, including Akron Northside, Peninsula, and Independence, according to a press release.Tickets for the National Park Scenic from Akron Northside, Peninsula, and Independence stations are on sale.
