Passenger Train Service To Southwestern Vermont

Amtrak's Ethan Allen from New York's Pennsylvania Station almost made it to North Bennington, Arlington and Manchester Vermont over newly rebuilt track from Hoosick Junction New York to North Bennington. The photos below depict the status of this project as of December 28, 2001. Amtrak's fiscal problems and lack of legislative will in Montpelier appear to have stalled this project indefinitely; a real pity.
