What Is the Cape Cod Central Railroad?

Cape Cod Central Railroad is a heritage, passenger railroad that operates primarily on 27 miles of former New Haven Railroad tracks on Cape Cod.

In 1848, the Boston & Sandwich Glass Company made freight service to the Cape necessary. The desire for passenger transportation followed soon after, and between 1854 and 1959, the line was owned and operated by the Cape Cod Railroad, the Old Colony Railroad, and the New Haven Railroad.
