Historic National Road - Maryland
Western Maryland Station Center, MD
The Western Maryland Station Center, home of the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad, C&O Canal National Park Visitor’s Center, and the Allegany County Visitor's Information Center, provides ample parking and information about Cumberland.
From the depot, you can ride the Scenic Western Maryland Railroad aboard a train pulled by a 1916 Baldwin Steam Locomotive. The train climbs 1,300-feet through the mountains from Cumberland to Frostburg. The C&O Canal National Park Visitor Center and C&O Canal Place provide information on canal life in the Cumberland area and celebrate the city’s unique transportation heritage.
