Uploaded by: Curt Springstead
Created: Sunday, September 10, 2006

Starting from Seton in Belchertown MA
Amhers Station at the college
In the hole for Amtrak Vermonter at Brattleboro

Amtrak heads south clearing the track for us to continue to White River Junction
Passing parked cars north of Brattleboro
Springfield VT Station, now a building supply

Lots of covered bridges along the route
The bridges are of many styles and colors
View from the rails south of White River Junction

Freight crew working to the south
After 110 miles the White River Junction Station looks very inviting
Locked down for the night at White River

Getting set for 120 miles to St Albans on day 2
Early morning fog burned off quickly
Long runs between crossings were the standard

Crossings were few but generally well equipped
In the hole on day 2 for Amtrak again S Royalton, VT
S Royalton Station, now a bank

S Roylaton classic New England town, home of Vermont Law School
Lots of bridge crossings, up to 250 ft plus high!
Every little town became an event when we arrived

Flagging a busy crossing
Three section truss bridge, plate says 1923

Day 3 we head to Lake Champlain for lunch cruise
In the hole for a working freight between Essex Jct and St Albans
Heading home on Day 3 Georgia Bridge

Covered bridges to each side of this intersection
Day 5 heading out, Ernesto just drizzle
Amtrak passes at S Royalton 60 mph!!!
