>>1711095And while we're on the subject of winter train operation in Vermont, you want to hear about a terrible crash?
Read about the Hartford rail bridge disaster, where a train fell off a bridge, into the river, caught fire, and burned down the bridge. 36 people died from a combination of being crushed, drowned, frozen, or burned to death.
"Surely, if there was a fire bad enough to burn down the bridge, the ice didn't stay thick enough to hold up the trucks"
Yeah, no.
