Cape Cod Central Railroad, Heritage railway in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, United States

The Cape Cod Central Railroad operates seasonal train excursions across 27 miles of track between Hyannis and Buzzards Bay through coastal landscapes and salt marshes.

Founded in 1999, this railroad preserves the legacy of the original Cape Cod Central Railroad that connected 14 towns between 1861 and 1868.

The railroad maintains several historical structures along its route, including the 1911 West Barnstable station and the Buzzards Bay dispatch tower and depot.

Passengers can board trains at two main stations, Hyannis or Buzzards Bay, with services running from Easter through October and special winter holiday events.

The route crosses the Cape Cod Canal on the second longest vertical lift railroad bridge of its type in the world, constructed in 1935.
