Trains to Wilkes Barre, PA?

Question

I'm going to a concert next month at the Wachovia Arena in Wilkes Barre (which is about 2 hours from where I live), and I would like to take a train. Does anyone know if there are any trains in that area? And if so, where they connect to?

Answer 1

right, at this time there is no rail service to wilkes-barre, neither by amtrak nor by any commuter rail agency.  perhaps some day.....

other nearby cities such as scranton or allentown also do not have any amtrak service nor commuter rail service.

there is intercity BUS service, tho'.  from philadelphia to wilkes-barre, the carrier is Martz Trailways, see http://www.martztrailways.com/  for their schedules/fares, and to purchase tickets info.

Answer 2

NO passenger trains to either Scranton or Wilkes Barre.

Answer 3

Unless there is a commuter rail system there, that would be it, becuase Amtrak doesnt service Wilkes Barre.

also, if you gave where you lived, it would help also, not trying to be contradicting, just trying to help.
