It is frighteningly easy to get there via public transportation. The R6
leaves you off a few blocks from netaxs itself and even closer to lee
park. It is the stop before Conshohocken but I can't recall the name
right now. Cheap and frustration free, IMO. But I prefer a late bus in
the rain to a car with other drivers on the road any day. I'll train
pool with you if you wanna meet up at market east or really any of the
septa center city regional rail stations. This offer goes out to all. I
have been out there once and am a little familiar with the area.
