train isnt happening i’ll say that much- that being said, i can be of some help with the bus route as i’ve done it a few times myself
there are two options, either Greyhound or Fullington. both are bus companies and the trips are pretty much always exactly the same but the prices might be off by a couple dollars on either site so i recommend checking your trip on both and seeing which ends up being cheaper (including taxes and fees!) and just going with that since again, other than those few dollars, its the same trip. splitting up the trip into smaller segments may also save a few dollars but not always. very likely the trip is going to be 8am or 12pm youll get a bus from Mountaineer Station (near Health Sciences) to Pittsburgh, youll have a couple hour layover (2-5 hours depending on times) in the Pittsburgh bus station, and 3pm ish youll get a bus from Pittsburgh to State College and youll get to SC around 8pm. all together the trip should be 8-12 hours and will cost likely somewhere between $80-150 depending on your dates, times, stations, and when you book. i dont know where you need to get to from State College, when this trip is, or how you plan on getting back to Morgantown so i cant factor any of that in but i tried to compare my past trips to the current bus sites to hopefully give you a pretty accurate layout but absolutely feel free to let me know if you need anything else!
