History
editThis station and the next station, Henryville, were the two stations northwest from the East Stroudsburg station to the Cresco station. By the late 1930s Analomink served just a few local trains DLW a day, with the noteworthy named trains bypassing the station. The station stopped seeing passenger service at some point between 1939 and 1946.[3][4]
Prospective return of service
editThe station site will be situated between the track and Route 191, and would include a 250-space surface parking lot. Access to this site will be from Routes 191 and 447.[1]
Rail service to New Jersey and New York City would be provided by NJ Transit via the Lackawanna Cut-Off.
