Hocking Valley Scenic Railway www.hvsry.org The funds we acquire go right back into the railroad primarily via track and equipment maintenance, and restoration projects.

We are a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to the restoration and preservation of historic railroad equipment for the education and entertainment of the the general public. We offer both diesel and
steam-powered train rides along a section of the former Chesapeake & Ohio Hocking Division, which was once part of the original Hocking Valley Railway (1865-1930). Please consider joining us a volunteer member. Visit https://www.hvsry.org/volunteer/ to find out how.
