About the Wally Road Scenic Byway
The scenic beauty of the forested hilltops, deep ravines, wetlands and rich soil bottom lands of the Mohican and Walhonding valleys was restricted to a few river travelers and remote villages before the Toledo, Walhonding Valley and Ohio Railroad \",\"(\",\"the \"Wally\"\",\")\",\" opened a 45-mile connecting route from Coshocton to Loudonville in 1892. This route was considered one of the most scenic train rides in Ohio. The railroad ceased operations in 1942, but part of the route lives on as the Wally Road byway.

About this page's facts
The line is the Federal Highway Administration's scenic byways layer (HEPGIS, a snapshot of 2022-06-24, a US government work), cut at the state line and simplified for the map; the length is the line's. The designation is the program's own: the national tiers from FHWA's America's Byways roster, the rest from the layer's designation field. Road conditions, closures and seasonal gates change: check the agency's own page and the state's road conditions before you go.
