• Public Transportation

  If you are using public transportation, your best option is to take a local bus service from a nearby town such as Flintstone or Hancock to Cumberland. You may need to check the local bus schedule for specific routes and timings, as service may not be frequent. Once you arrive in Cumberland, you can either walk or take a taxi to the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad located at 13 Canal St. Expect to pay a fare for the bus as well as a taxi if needed. Make sure to confirm the total costs based on the bus and taxi rates.
