From: Chuck.Weinstock@cmu-sei.arpa Does anyone have any information on the Cape Cod Railway? I have to make a trip to the area and thought I'd take the chance to ride it. I'm specifically interested in schedule and information as to how to contact the railroad.

Steam Pass Service Dir usually has info on Cape Cod. The 1982
edition I have at work has the following address;
Cape Cod & Hyannis Railroad
Box 57
Hyannis, Mass 02601
(617) 771-1145.
They did run tourist excursion service between Hyannis,
Sandwich, and one other town on the Cape.
There was an article last year about them extending service up
to the Boston Area. I believe the article was in Passenger
Train Journal. If you are interested I'll try to find it at the
library and send you more info.
