You should think northbound too ,because although I never did it I know many who did .The Vermonter(the train) is 40 MPH from Brattleboro to the Canadian border ,it's like a 4-1/2 hour ride

Absolutely, that’s why I think they should make the Vermonter an electrified high speed line all the way from New Haven to Montreal.

Only issue is at that point, we need a multi-state coalition thing, because I don’t know how keen Vermont is to listen to some jackass from the Springfield metropolitan area lol.

Yea for sure or at least to the border,some beaurocrat in Ottawa will decide what happens from Canada on but I get your point.

Honestly I have never met anyone who rode the Vermonter past St Albans so I don't what the Canuckie side is like really.
