Scranton doesn’t seem to be on the route. If they’d take a detour like in the original though…
Come on, how can you not make that detour...
Most of that time was just hanging out on an island not traveling
The problem is they turned onto Chrysler Ave instead of hitting 890 off crosstown and once you get on Chrysler Ave it's impossible to get off and then you're just stuck at Schenectady.
Hi neighbor! I love seeing other locals on lemmy.
I noticed when he finally stepped back on his land again, he brought milk, because he told Telemachus back then that he was stepping out to get some milk. /s
Still accurate if you’re in the Russian army
Troy NY is a fucking psychotic place
It's a hell of a lot better than it used to be. I remember being scared to be there in the '90s. They've put a lot of money into cleaning up downtown and the waterfront. Crime has plummeted through the floor. New construction and new restaurants have moved in. These days, it's nearly the hipster Brooklyn scene of the Capital Region.

As I probably will never see either: are any of the places on the map, especially itaka and troy (us) worth a visit?
Neither are well known enough that I, a resident of Texas, knows anything remarkable about them. I've heard if Ithaca New York, never heard of Troy.
There are things to do and see in any city or town in America, but I expect that kind of travel is an aquired taste.
(By comparison: the small towns around my city boast things like: peanut festival, strawberry festival, highland games. I expect you could find similar events in Ithaca or Troy, but you would need to enjoy that kind of 'state fair' atmosphere. These are things I would drive an hour for but wouldn't travel out of state unless I was there incedentally already)
I grew up in that area as a kid.
Troy is part of the Tri-city Area of Albany/ Schenectady/ Troy, so it is really part of the State Capital. If you are into state capitals, which generally have a mild historical interest, then there you are.
Ithaca is just another small central NY city. Central NY is one of the most beautiful parts of America to drive through, with old stone houses and rock walls dividing farm fields. It's not really known for some big historical event or location, it's just one of those old historical areas where you hit the antique stores, and have meals at quaint little cafes, and stay at a B&B somewhere.
So, delightful for "getting away" and being somewhere pretty? Sounds wonderful.

Ithaca is sort of a charming college town, a lot of art/nature/hippy vibes. If you had to be in central ny for some reason it wouldn't be a bad place to spend some time. I would not make a special trip for it tho.

That's not the most unrealistic part, unfortunately...
That's with a car, is it's totally different.
If you had to push a Greek penteconter the whole way down that freeway, with occasional side trips for special requests, it might take you a long time too.
Rome and Syracuse causally chilling in there...
Ok, now show me the trip estimate for making that trip in a big boat…
Now you try rowing a boat on the highway!
