Vermont, Atlantic & Northern (VAN)

The Vermont & Atlantic (reporting mark VARR) began operations in 1995. It runs from New London, Connecticut, to Rouses Point, NY, a distance of about 400 miles. In addition it operates two branch lines, one to Rutland, VT (also taken-over in 1995 from the GMRC) and another recent take-over of the former MMA line to Brookport, QC, extending the former B&M line from Saint Johnsbury, VT

In addition to freight service, the VA also operates the former Steamtown museum (which never left VT in my version of history, the town of Bellows Falls had taken over the property and leased operations to the GMRC).

The railroad also interchanges:
 * PWRR at New London, CT
 * CSX at Palmer, MA
 * PAS at Millers Fall, MA
 * VTR at Rutland, VT
 * CP & CN at Rouses Point
 * CP at Brookport, QC
