Transportation between La Plata & Mexico

Transportation between La Plata & Mexico

I’m having a lot of trouble finding transportation from the Amtrak station in La Plata to and from Mexico, Missouri. Even something to and from Kirkwood would be very helpful. Any suggestions?

That is going to be tough. Mexico is about 65 miles southeast of LaPlata, Kirksville is about 12 miles north of La Plata, and that Amtrak stop is in the middle of nowhere. Kirksville's city website does show a taxi service and limo and shuttle services so you might reach out to them.

And Uber's website does imply that they are available in the area.

Thank you for your reply. I looked everywhere & called everyone I could think of because I really wanted to try traveling by train. In the end I had to go with flying into St. Louis & renting a car there. : (
