The Cass Railway is a state park built around an original eleven mile logging railway that extends into the mountains of West Virginia. While logging operations have ceased, the railroad takes visitors on a trip high into the mountains where camps of lumbermen once timbered the hills. A fleet of specially designed steam locomotives power excursion trains up the steep grades that most locomotives could not even begin to climb.

Authentic railway stock has been fully restored by volunteers who operate the park for the State.

After a two hour trip up the side of the mountain, traveling at angles often in excess of nine feet elevation per 100 feet of travel, the train reaches Bald Knob, the summit of the mountain.
