- tantalor 2y agoAlso has an Amtrak station!
- op00to 2y agoHow many trains a day?
- smhg 2y agoNot even one per day as far as I can tell. The Amtrack website also mentions: Known as Maryland's “Queen City,” Cumberland was an early gateway to the West. Today, it is a bustling arts center and popular stopover for cyclists using the trail network between Pittsburgh and Washington, D.C.
- trollbridge 2y agoCUM has a train headed for DC show up once a day at 9:30am. Takes 3½ hours, which is about an hour longer than driving. In the other direction to Pittsburgh leaves at 7:30pm and takes 4½ hours, more than 2 hours longer than driving.
- dragontamer 2y agoThe idea of DC to NYC being roughly as far away as Maryland to DC is kinda funny to me. I guess that's just how the panhandle panhandles.
