Save the Ethan Allen
Sign Now
We the undersigned oppose eliminating the Ethan Allen Amtrak train and
oppose replacing it with a bus. We understand the budget pressures created
by the drop in driving and gas tax revenue, but do not think cutting the
train when it is growing 17\% in popularity is the solution. We believe the
Ethan Allen is an important economic asset for western Vermont. We believe
that this cut threatens the mobility of all Vermonters. We believe
strengthening Vermont's rail network offers more financial benefits than
this cut and suggest extending the Ethan Allen to Burlington. Thank you for your service and for finding an alternate solution."

In this time of economic hardship, more people will use the train, and that is a good thing!

We have little mass transportation in our state. The train is a positive for our region, for the ski industry, for tourism in general. Keep the train and extend the route north to Burlington.

I grew up in the Rutland area and every time I come home I use the train. If the train is canceled I would not take the bus because it's far too slow and inconvenient. As a result I will make less trips to Vermont to see family an
