We bring the past to life.

Our Great Dome, Ocean View returns to the rails beginning Thursday, May 5th just in time for the inauguration of steam locomotive #1309.

Ocean View has received a brand-new interior over the winter and Western Maryland Scenic can't wait to share the improvements with you. All-new seating, tables, and chairs have been installed for your trip through Mountain Maryland. We will be sharing teaser photos over the next few weeks.

Ocean View, originally built for the Great Northern Railroad, then utilized by Amtrak, is the pride of our passenger fleet. Enjoy beverages from the full-service bar, hors d'oeuvres, or desert depending on your excursion.

Seats in this beautiful car are filling quickly. Make your reservation today. Tickets are available at www.wmsr.com.

Congratulations, Western Maryland Scenic Railroad! Can't wait to see locomotive #1309 hit the rails.

Thinking back to our trip on the Joliet Rocket in Chicago a few years ago. What an amazing experience!

Ready to ride? TODAY (Oct. 27) at midnight is your last chance to book your spot on the Oct. 30th trip from Chicago to Washington D.C. Don't miss out on this amazing trip! Details below: The trip will be BYOB, meaning limited service will be provided, and lay flat beds will not be available on Stampede Pass itself. That means you'll get to watch the stars from the dome or snuggle into one of our comfy leather chairs down below in the lounge. We’ll have plenty of coffee for the late-nighters or early-risers. Origin station options: Chicago to Washington: $299 Pittsburgh to Washington: $249 Cumberland to Washington: $199 Seats are limited. If you're interested, send an email to [email protected]. We’ll reply with an electronic Stripe invoice so that you can securely pay for the tickets. Deadline for tickets is Oct 27th at midnight Central Time. Come ride the high-iron in a PV while we still can!!

Never miss a spectacular view. #domeup

We're flying now! Rain or shine, the dome is the best way to see the sights. #domeup

It's a great Friday in West Virginia! All of the passengers on Stampede Pass are taking in the gorgeous sights on the Autumn Colors Express today.

The past few days being a part of the Heritage Highball have been absolutely amazing. Thanks again to Kentucky Steam and The Kentucky Railway Museum for having Paxrail join C&O 2716 and its hardworking crews on the rails.
