  • Amtrak offers three passenger train routes through Ohio, serving the major cities of Toledo, Cleveland, and Cincinnati. The major cities of Columbus, Akron and Dayton do not have Amtrak service. Columbus is the second largest metropolitan area in the U.S. without passenger rail service. Columbus last had service with the National Limited in 1979. Dayton (which lost service in 1979 with the termination of the National Limited) and Akron (which lost service in 2005 with the termination of the Three Rivers) are the eleventh and twelfth. Of the cities in Ohio, only Greater Cleveland has rail mass transit, with rail stations within or "across the road" from the following communities: * Beachwood (Blue and Green Lines end near Beachwood) * Brook Park (across from Airport and Brook Park stations) * Cleveland * Cleveland Heights (couple blocks from Cedar–University, Coventry–Shaker, and Shaker Square stations) * East Cleveland (Red Line ends at the Louis Stokes Station at Windermere) * Lakewood (across from Madison–W.117 and Triskett–West 140th. stations) * Shaker Heights (Blue and Green Lines) Cleveland had a subway line crossing the Cuyahoga River on the lower-deck of Detroit-Superior Bridge traveling between Ohio City (near Detroit and West 25th. St.) and downtown Cleveland. Currently, it is open only for historical walking tours. Cleveland still has one subway line today, the Red Line, running from Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport to Louis Stokes-Windermere via Tower City-Public Square where it connects with the other lines, which are light rail.Cleveland also had a much larger, electric-powered light-rail streetcar system of rail coaches and overhead lines, which were replaced by diesel-powered city transit buses. Cincinnati once started construction of a subway, but work was abandoned during the Great Depression. Cincinnati has had efforts in the 21st century to revive train service with plans to extend train service from the Cincinnati Airport (CVG) in Kentucky to downtown Cincinnati, to Kings Island. However, funding for this project has not been found. There are also several passenger railroad lines and train stations in Ohio which offer scenic train rides. (en)
