OUR HISTORY

         Rail travelers arrived in East Stroudsburg at the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western station, which was constructed in 1856. Train service peaked in 1900 with the arrival of the legendary Phoebe Snow, “…the finest passenger transportation vehicle in the world”, according to service advertising. It’s comfortable sleeping cars and lavish dining and lounge cars were well publicized. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western advertising even pictured a woman dressed in white to show how clean anthracite coal burned in the locomotives. Dansbury Depot remains a very busy destination for tourists and locals. In peak season our restaurant services in excess of 3,000 guests weekly. The plans for the future railroad are now more of a certainty with gambling coming soon to the Poconos. One study suggests passenger service as early as 2008 and the Dansbury Depot again as an active station. The rail would carry passengers from Scranton across the Delaware River into New Jersey. ALL ABOARD!!
