The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad is a Class III railroad that operates diesel electric and steam powered excursions through the scenic Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

While the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad offers a variety of different themed trains, one of our absolute favorites is the Grape Escape. This 2-hour journey is a local favorite that begins in Independence at the historic Rockside Station. The train will then weave through Cuyahoga Valley along the rushing Cuyahoga River from a one-of-a-kind vantage point.
