    Scranton, PA at a Glance

    This WorldWeb.com travel and tourism guide for Scranton, featuring hotels and other accommodations, tours, attractions, events, shopping and more, will help you plan a successful visit to Scranton, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.

    Scranton grew out of the iron and coal industries that blossomed in the mid-19th century. Although the city plundered into recession when the production of anthracite coal slowed after World War II, Scranton has endured and prospered, becoming a popular tourist destination laden with historic sites and museums that invoke nostalgia. Perhaps Scranton's most impressive attraction, Steamtown National Historic Site pays homage to the history of steam railroads with one of the country's largest collections of period locomotives, and the site's visitor center, history museum and technology museum provide a thorough overview of American steam railroading. The Anthracite Museum Complex documents another part of Scranton's industrial past—the mining and textile industries. For a closer encounter with Scranton's coal mining heritage, tours of Lackawanna Coal Mine take visitors 300 ft (91 m) underground via rail car, where they embark upon a walking tour of the mine's arteries.
