The dream of passenger rail service connecting Scranton, the Poconos, and New York City is moving along the tracks closer to becoming a reality! It was recently announced that the route has been accepted into the Corridor ID Program, and the Federal Railroad Administration will be providing $500,000 in funding towards the Scranton to NYC route.
