*A Thrilling Ride on the Cass Bald Knob Train
The Cass Scenic Railroad is the same line built in 1901 to haul lumber to the mill in Cass. The locomotives are the same Shay locomotives used in Cass during that time, and in the rain forests of British Columbia for more than a half-century. Many of the passenger cars are old logging cars that have been refurbished.
Cass is the home to the worldβs largest fleet of geared Shay locomotives. Five Shays, one Heisler, and one Climax reside here. The legendary turn-of-the-century class C-80 Shay, #5 has been toiling up Cheat Mountain for 115 years, making it one of the oldest engines in continuous service on its original line, and the oldest operable Shay in existence!
*Visit to the Elkins Railroad Museum
*Cass Showcase History Tour
*All Taxes, Baggage & Meal Gratuities
*2 Free Trips Per 40 Paid
