Wow, you guys are really ganging up on the OP. Why wouldn't you assume he needs his car in Allentown, and wouldn't be able to get around after being dropped at the bus station?

To the OP, Walnut St is your fastest option, especially if you can get locked onto the street light synch at 35 MPH.
It would make sense to have the person at 69th St get on the El and meet you at 30th St, because then you could easily hop onto I76W to 476N which will take you to the Turnpike NE Extension, to Allentown.

Pretty sure only one person suggested he take a bus to Allentown. Everyone else is simply telling him to have the two people he is picking up use the pt they are right on top of to both head to one station so the op doesn't have to drive from station to station.

Whoever is arriving at suburban station should just hop on the subway to 69th where the op can pick them both up and then just take w cheater pike to 476. Why would the op drive to two stations allong the mfl???? Obviously a train moves quicker. Picking them up at different stations is just going to waste everyones time and waste gas.
