Moving our city forward through growth and restoration.

Track how rail sale investment funds are making their way into Cincinnati neighborhoods. 

Our new journey begins

We’re proud to directly impact Cincinnati’s infrastructure through Cincinnati Southern Railway Trust investment funds. $56 million has already been allocated in our first year for city projects slated to begin in FY2026 (July 2025-June 2026).

We are now the Cincinnati Southern Railway Trust

Legally, we are still Cincinnati Southern Railway (CSR), but now solely operating as a trust, responsible for stewarding, growing, and distributing funds appropriated by the Cincinnati City Council to improve our city. CSR was originally the only city-owned railway in the country and created with future generations in mind as the beneficiaries. Our legacy continues today through investment funds used for the repair, renovations, and expansion of roads, buildings, and facilities. Learn about our past to understand why our destination has always been growth and prosperity for all.

Transparency at every stop

CSRT funds are strictly used for city improvements with the purpose of bettering the lives of its citizens. We provide access to meeting minutes, financial statements, and additional information we have relevant to fund activities. Transparency is essential. We encourage you to take a look.
