Good news for Northampton is that starting this fall they are essentially going to be cutting the road width in half by doubling the side walk and adding 2 protected bike lanes on each side of Main St.
Someday I vow I’m going to drag you to the 1282-foot Hartland Covered Bridge in New Brunswick, but until that happens, this was a pretty nifty time too ;)
It’s astonishing that Vermont has a surprisingly high number of Amtrak stations in relation to its total population while New Hampshire only has 3 (edit: 4) that aren’t even located in its most populous cities… I think NH takes the cake as the most anti-rail state in New England!
We literally passed a bill banning new rail projects. People see rail as a way for people from mass to get into the state as if the highways don’t already do that
So Yankee Candle is (as of 2023) headquartered in South Deerfield, however it was founded in South Hadley in 1969 (obligatory nice) when Michael Kittredge II (from Holyoke) created his first scented candle from melted crayons as a gift for his mother for Christmas. Then his neighbors wanted to buy them and so he produced them in larger quantities. The company itself was founded with help from Donald MacIver and Susan Obremski, who were high school friends with him. He sold Yankee Candle to Forstmann Little & Co. in 1998 and stepped away from the candle industry. He first started changing hands in 1993 because of a cancer scare. As of 2023, it's a part of Newell Brands. For a college course, his son Michael Kittredge III was tasked to create and promote a product, so naturally they chose candles. He talked to his father about expanding it into an actual business, and so they discovered a building in Bernardston and co-founded Kringle Candle before Christmas 2009.
i love brattleburo station it's so hilariously funny the way it just kinda stops at an at grade crossing. Also, finally the Vermonter video i have been waiting for, love that train. haha.
The dinosaur footprints is very literal. There's rocks with actual fossilized dino footprints in it that you can go look at. There's also some south of there in CT, the CT River Valley is apparently fertile ground for this sort of thing.
Great to see another installment in this series. As someone who constantly uses the overpass at Moynihan, the section near track 10 always has people filming tiktoks there 24/7, even multiple tiktok groups at once show up there.
Perfect timing for it to snow right after having a magical dining experience in such a beautiful station building! What a neat little town! Definitely wild that Vermont was its own country at one point! And nice to see ✨Worcester, Massachusetts✨ make a return from the Boston diner video! Windsor was the first in Vermont to break ground for the railroad as they got a train station/depot in January 1849. The station building you ate at is from 1901 because the original 1849 building burned down. Like Stone Mountain in Georgia, Mount Ascutney is a monadnock or an isolated hill or mountain that rises above a relatively flat area! Monadnock is derived from an Abenaki word that loosely translates to "mountain that stands alone". Windsor was chartered as a town in July 1761 and settled in August 1764. As you saw, Windsor is home to the American Precision Museum which was the first factory in the US to make precision interchangeable parts. Even though Windsor was no longer the capital of the Vermont Republic after it joined the US in 1791, it was still the capital of the state until 1805 when Montpelier was selected due to its central location.
11:50: I'm personally a fan of sticking with 2019 data. Sure there may be newer routes and stations, but I'm personally more interested in well-established stations that are least used, and not stations that are least used because they've only been open a few months. The former takes you to places like Windsor VT and Helper UT, whereas the latter might result in visits to urban infill stations or something.
Your TikTok dance is oddly reminiscent of those inflated yellow wiggly figures often seen at used car lots and mattress store openings. There was no Menu Shot for the Windsor Station Restaurant! I'm a tad disappointed about that. Maple syrup makes everything better. Thanks for sharing!
Oh wow, Franklin Street station on the 1! Besides the Square Diner, that's right by the Ghostbusters firehouse too! While the diner's from the 1940s, the firehouse was built in 1903! The building was designed as the first of a series of Beaux-Arts style firehouses by the city superintendent of buildings, Alexander H. Stevens. The firehouse used to have two vehicle doors, however when Varick Street (named for mayor of NYC from 1789 to 1801 who owned property in the area) was widened in 1913, its size was halved and so it's just one now. The firehouse was chosen for Ghostbusters because Dan Aykroyd knew the area and liked the building! Besides Ghostbusters, the firefighters there were among the first responders for the WTC attacks. Come for the Vermont station review, stay for Miles and Jackson dancing at 3:19. The Connecticut State Capitol is pretty cool! It was built between 1871 and 1878, with the exterior made using granite from Westerly, Rhode Island and marble from East Canaan. They used to meet in both New Haven and Hartford alternatively but after the Civil War, selected Hartford as the sole capital. There were two competitors, James G. Batterson and Richard M. Upjohn (who also designed Edwin A. Stevens Hall in Hoboken). Upjohn won, however, Batterson was awarded the role of building contractor. Because of this, he pulled a genius move of revising Upjohn's plan, so the capitol design looked more like his own design.
WOW HOW DARE JACKSON CALL NORTHAMPTON ONLY OK IM UNSUBSCRPINING YPOU ABOWEIPUT ITIOTS HOWE DAREWER YOUOUI Also yeah, Main Street is stupid wide, good thing we're at the beginning of a $21 million redesign to introduce better bike lanes and less (sadly not zero) angled parking!
I know this is an older video but you are so UNDERRATED !! I am obsessed with your channel you are hilarious 😂, but also just love seeing you travel! Thank you for being you! Love your channel! Plus I saw you were in Emeryville at one point at the Amtrak station there and I literally live in Alameda!!
I am assuming (like 99.9999% sure) next week's video is least used Amtrak station in NH which is Claremont. Honestly, I don't get the point of it. It is the single NH station on the Vermonter. Thom from Trains Are Awesome in the Downeaster vid said that the Downeaster is the only Amtrak train to go to NH but that is untrue. Love your vids and will be there for the livestream. *For least used Amtrak, can you also include Quebec, BC and Ontario. THX!
Fun fact about Connecticut’s state capital building, there’s a statue that used to be on the roof, but it fell down and was used for metal stock during the war. They have a recreation in the entry hall as well as the original plaster they used to make the mold (painted to look brass before they managed to get the recreation)
Oh wow, the Yankee/Kringle schism is real. One of my closest friends, long a Yankee Candle aficionado (to the point that he'd always make us stop at the factory/Disney World of Candles on our way back from Mohawk Trail State Forest in Charlemont whenever we'd rent those DCR log cabins there) gave up on Yankee Candles after it was sold to a conglomerate and [per him] the "quality took a nosedive" and switched to Kringle. On a side note, it's too bad the there isn't service up the Connecticut River line to St. Johnsbury or Newport as some of the towns up there are pretty nice and lively too (Bradford, Newbury, Wells River, St Johnsbury, Lyndon, Newport, to name a few), plus I'd be able to get to my family's place in New Hampshire by train (or more more likely, pick up friends visiting from points south), which is just across the Connecticut River from Wells River, VT, near North Haverhill, NH..
Vergennes isn't the least used station either - FY22 only included two months of the new Ethan Allen Express extension. It probably won't be the least used when FY23 station numbers come out soon. That said, Miles should totally do a trip report of the Ethan Allen Express to Burlington!
How’s it looking for New York State, according to the 2019 statistics Port Kent is the least used station, but the Adirondack no longer stops there. Looks like Rouses Point is the least used station that Amtrak still serves. Keep up the vids from upstate NY ✌️
@@MilesinTransit After a quick gander at the Port Kent NY Amtrak station wiki, it seems like that stations only purpose was to serve a ferry to Burlington, VT. Now with direct rail service to that city the Adirondack would have no reason to stop there. There is a possibility once ferry service resumes the Adirondack would stop once again in Port Kent. Given the ferry's summer month designation that could take a while unfortunately. Waiting for that fabled day is up to you, but if the train did stop at Port Kent it would leave you and your friend's in a desolate wilderness. Fortunately, Rouses Point has a small town main street that is in relatively close proximity to the station. Once again I appreciate your content, and would love to know your decision on the matter.
@@MilesinTransit The ferry company has wiped every single trace of the Burlington-Port Kent ferry from their website, and redeveloped the Burlington ferry ramp into a marina. (Because if there's one thing Burlington needs, its a 4th marina.) So I doubt Amtrak service will resume.
In 2019 it was Denmark, which is WAY more difficult than Spartanburg...I'm almost sad to hear it's an easier town these days. But Denmark is more interesting, I suppose!
@@MilesinTransit Real talk though, I think this answers the question of whether to stick with 2019 data or to update: pick and choose whichever one is more interesting! Do both if time and money allow! And overall, I'd say that if the least-used has changed over the years, let the tiebreaker go to the one that you have reason to believe is less used historically.
Windsor is also the home of the Mill Brook Railroad and one of the hotels starring in Gordon Ramsay's TV show Hotel Hell. Both are further outside the town though. And what's the second thing you wanted to say at the end? Will we find out next week?
Every time you sing the menu song, my sick and twisted brain thinks "Men you shot, men you shot, right now you're lookin' at the men you shot." PS: The longest covered bridge in the world is in Hartland, New Brunswick, 🇨🇦.
Technically, in 1777 Vermont unilaterally declared itself to be the 14th state. Independence was the de facto situation but it was not the intention of our founders.
if miles friend ever sees this again, I want to change this man's life by introducing you and him to one of the most under-appreciated genre, movement and also band of the 80's, Game Theory. Seriously, no meme, if you are a fan of Alex Chilton you're doing a disservice of not listening to them and the majority of the Paisley Underground music from L.A. ruclips.net/video/-OkFfMwcAWA/видео.html&ab_channel=GameTheory-Topic I also highly recommend The Dream Syndicate, Rain Parade, Opal, Green on Red, Thin White Rope and the biggest, super-group and most recognized of them all, Mazzy Star (first record) Dream Syndicate, Game Theory and Kendra Smith being the master-pieces of the entire movement. If you ever wanted the Power Pop, New Wave, Neo-Psych with Alex-Chilton pop sensibilities and genius song structures, then look no further. This has been a public service announcement for Transit meets art ho music discussion brought you by sharing is caring :---) also, love the work and keep it up! Super underrated channel, might call it the Game Theory of youtube creators ;)
I lovermont; it was my first choice of places to retire. Unfortunately, Rheumatoid Arthritis said, "Not so fast, my friend!" and I had to retreat to warmer climes.
I'm from Windsor! Graduated from High School there and worked at the hardware store during the summers while I was in college. You guys even filmed the apartment block I used to live in. I gotta say, I loved watching you guys enjoy my little middle of nowhere town!😄 Also, pre-Covid the train Platform did extend the length of the old station building. The barely a platform that you guys saw is relatively new. 😒
That's awesome, thanks so much for watching! They probably moved the platform for the sake of ADA accessibility, which is a good thing, but it really sucks that they didn't put ANY amenities whatsoever on it.
sticking to 2019 might be useful for some sense of consistency. numbers are always gonna be in a bit of flux from year to year, and one could argue the framing of the immediate pre-COVID is a compelling snapshot of a particular era of amtrak. but either way would be fine! and sharing more contemporary numbers is also a useful reference
MAPLE CHEESECAKE?!?!?! sounds amazing. I'm torn if the 'least used' or 'most inefficient way to get to x' videos are my favorite series. Stick with the 2019 data since it really gives us a more accurate sense of it pre-pandemic numbers and adjust as required when adding new data.
Good news for Northampton is that starting this fall they are essentially going to be cutting the road width in half by doubling the side walk and adding 2 protected bike lanes on each side of Main St.
Wow, that's awesome to hear!
Someday I vow I’m going to drag you to the 1282-foot Hartland Covered Bridge in New Brunswick, but until that happens, this was a pretty nifty time too ;)
love the seinfeld reference in the vid!
Seconded!
Glad you guys enjoyed the food in Windsor 😉
My favorite part of this was when I got an ad for Jesus right before Miles talked about Satan’s Kingdom.
It’s astonishing that Vermont has a surprisingly high number of Amtrak stations in relation to its total population while New Hampshire only has 3 (edit: 4) that aren’t even located in its most populous cities… I think NH takes the cake as the most anti-rail state in New England!
They couldn't accomplish the "or die" part of "Live Free or Die" as easily if they didn't force you to drive everywhere
NH has 4 stations, 3 on the Downeaster and 1 on the Vermonter
We literally passed a bill banning new rail projects. People see rail as a way for people from mass to get into the state as if the highways don’t already do that
@@Matt-ln1zl I’m convinced that NH is the Florida of New England- it’s got the sprawl, car-dependence, and right-wing looneys
How else are they supposed to make money off of all those annoying toll roads? 😂
2013 Street view of Windsor shows the platforms are just paved paths along tracks. So there were some significant upgrade to the platforms since then.
Too bad they couldn't drum up the massive funds required to install a bus shelter
The beautiful lake is Silver Lake in Meriden CT - great for kayaking and foamers on kayaks taking photos of trains.
im watching this while on the Vermonter to Windsor. how meta.

Complete the series using 2019 stats, then start over with the latest stats when you’re done. That way it is an ever-changing adventure! 😁
i love brattleburo station it's so hilariously funny the way it just kinda stops at an at grade crossing. Also, finally the Vermonter video i have been waiting for, love that train. haha.
It’s like a suburban commuter train. The station I took in 5th grade was like that. Primos on Septa’s R3 in PA.
I love your “least used station” series and your kind and understanding friend(s)!!! 2019 is fine with me.
I might have to take the train to Windsor and stay overnight just to try that maple cheesecake. It’s tempting.
The dinosaur footprints is very literal. There's rocks with actual fossilized dino footprints in it that you can go look at. There's also some south of there in CT, the CT River Valley is apparently fertile ground for this sort of thing.
it's always a good day when Miles post's a new video.

I dunno, I think sticking to 2019 masks the chronology of the video.
That building at the front of the traffic jam you caused in Brattleboro is a brewpub that makes some weird food
Now I know more about transit and Dinners in Vermont.
Probably the best culinary state in the USA. Breakfasts and sandwiches taste better in Vermont.

Welcome to Miles in Candles
Me: *flashbacks to carrying huge boxes of Yankee Candles for fundraising for high school robotics*
If you can finish up the system by 2024s end stick with 2019 but if not go with up to date stats
I think updating the data would be good.
Never mind more frequent services from all those other places you mentioned, it would be nice if we could get directly to Vermont from Boston
Yeah, that would be amazing!
that would be great. the buses that exist aren't half bad though
@@snowyyyyyyyyyyyyy It's just a couple Greyhounds a day, right? Unless you also count Dartmouth Coach, which gets to the border.
@@MilesinTransit megabus on fridays/sundays too, 1x/day to either montpelier or burlington vt

The dome of the CT Capitol building is actually gold leaf and not copper.
In order to cover all possible permutations of future changes to Amtrak ridership, Miles should visit each and every Amtrak station! 😉
I'd suggest doing Ferrisburgh-Vergennes just for the heck of it. 🤷♂

sticking to 2019 might be useful for some sense of consistency. numbers are always gonna be in a bit of flux from year to year, and one could argue the framing of the immediate pre-COVID is a compelling snapshot of a particular era of amtrak. but either way would be fine! and sharing more contemporary numbers is also a useful reference

I went out of my way to go to the Windsor Diner once a few years ago. It's great!
MAPLE CHEESECAKE?!?!?! sounds amazing. I'm torn if the 'least used' or 'most inefficient way to get to x' videos are my favorite series.
Stick with the 2019 data since it really gives us a more accurate sense of it pre-pandemic numbers and adjust as required when adding new data.
