USA to Montréal: your guide to a great road trip

Jamie O'Meara

Jamie O'Meara was the Editor-in-Chief at C2 Montréal and the former Editor-in-Chief of alt-weekly newspaper  HOUR Magazine .

This article was updated on April 10, 2024.

It may come as a surprise to many that the old-world charm and sophisticated metropolitan allure of Montréal is only a short drive away for many Americans in the northeastern United States, and that getting here by car is one of the easiest ways to enjoy a trip to the city that is now wide open for business and visitors. Let the following road trip pro tips help you make the most of your drive to, as we say in Quebec, la belle ville…

As in most major cities, the summer season is when work is planned to improve the road network. To avoid unnecessary delays, plan ahead by checking the Mobility Montréal website .

Motoring to Montréal is easy peasy

Montréal is located a short hop from the Canada/US border, and the main Quebec border entry points are, not coincidentally, on the major US highways that most American visitors will take on their road trip to the city. The I-87 north from New York City past Plattsburgh gets you to the Champlain/Saint-Bernard-de-Lacolle border crossing (only 45 minutes from downtown Montreal on Autoroute 15); the I-93 west to I-89 north goes to the Saint-Armand/Highgate Springs crossing if you’re driving from Boston; and the I-91 goes north to the Stanstead/Derby Line crossing if you’re coming from parts further east in Vermont.

However, if you’re crossing from New York State via the Thousand Islands Bridge, the Seaway International Bridge/Three Nations Bridge, or the Ogdensburg-Prescott International Bridge into Ontario, and are planning to take the famous 401 highway into Quebec, we strongly recommend you read these essential road trip tips to make the most of your drive to Montréal.

Pick your point of entry

You’ll want to have a good idea of which border crossing you’re going to use because there are many of them , both large and small, along the Quebec border (New York State has 17 land border crossings with Quebec by itself, and Vermont has 15). Bear in mind that larger crossings tend to be busier and may take longer to traverse. You can go to the Canada Border Service Agency (CBSA) website to see current border wait times (it’s updated every hour) for the major crossings and to subscribe to email border alerts. The CBSA Border Alert Service notifies subscribers when unexpected events cause a significant disruption to normal border services. When a service disruption occurs at a border crossing, a border alert is issued to subscribers identifying the impacted crossing and recommending alternate entry points.

Come on in!

Crossing the border into Canada is a typically chill affair with a minimum of hassle in order to keep all the traffic moving seamlessly. You can expect to answer questions about why you’re visiting, where you’re planning to go and how long you’ll be staying — the standard stuff. You may also be asked if you’re bringing in any alcohol, tobacco, food or firearms. While alcohol and tobacco are permitted in limited amounts many other items are a definite no-no. Find out more about what you should and should not bring when crossing the border here .

And if you’re thinking of making the trip north more than once in the next five years (which you definitely should be), you may want to consider making a $50 investment in a NEXUS card . The card gives pre-approval to travellers to both Canada and the US, as well as expedited entry using dedicated vehicle lanes at designated land border crossings.

You’ve crossed the border into Quebec — now what?

The first thing that you’ll notice is that the road signs are in French. The second thing you’ll likely notice is that you can now drive 100 on the highway, woo-hoo! Except that the speed limits in Canada are in metric: kilometres per hour, not miles per hour. So 100 kmh is actually just a smidge over 62 mph. Since Montréal is an island, you will have to access downtown (Centre-Ville in French) by bridge. The two main bridges that you should take are the brand spankin’ new Samuel De Champlain Bridge (which will land you just west of downtown) or the historic, iconic Jacques-Cartier Bridge (which will put you just east of downtown). Driving in the city is not complicated, but it is different, so we highly recommend that you peruse our handy guide to driving in Montréal . See you soon!

Check out the Agence de mobilité durable’s website to see where parking is available near your destination. You can also download the P$ Mobile Service app to pay or top up your parking meter, wherever you are.

Trains In The Valley

Vermonter extension to montreal.

This page provides an overview of efforts that have been underway for over a decade to extend Amtrak’s Vermonter service north to Montréal.

Latest developments

Interested and involved parties, further reading.

As part of this project, a new joint customs and immigration facility is to be built at Montreal Central Station for the Canada Border Security Agency and U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

This facility would allow Amtrak passengers departing from Montreal on the Vermonter and Adirondack to clear U.S. customs and immigration prior to boarding the train, using a process that is known as preclearance .

In the reverse direction, passengers on these two trains would clear Canadian customs and immigration upon arrival in Montreal.

This setup would be similar to the way that passengers on flights to/from the United States are processed at airports in Canada today.

The Vermonter would travel from St. Albans, Vt. to Montréal, a distance of 71 miles (114 km), over track that is owned by New England Central Railroad [St. Albans to the international border], and Canadian National Railway (CN) [from the border into Montreal Central Station .)

As of August 2019 all of the necessary agreements are in place between Canada and the United States so that preclearance can legally take place at Central Station in Montreal.

The next step is for the Ministry of Transportation of Quebec (MTQ), the Government of Canada, and the owners of Montreal Central Station to develop a site plan and operation agreement for the planned preclearance facility in the station.

May 17, 2024 | Amtrak and Canadian National Railways (CN) reached an agreement that will allow CN to undertake extensive track work on CN-owned Rouses Point Subdivision between the U.S. – Canada border and Montreal. This track work, which will take place between May 20 and June 30, 2024, is expected to restore the infrastructure along the corridor so that passenger trains on the line can once again operate at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km) over most of the line.

March 31, 1995 | Amtrak canceled its overnight train the Montrealer which had provided daily service between Washington, DC and Montreal. The train was replaced with a daytime train, the Vermonter , that provides service as far north as St. Albans, VT.

2009 | Amtrak prepared a preliminary design for a Preclearance facility to be located adjacent to track 23 at Montreal Central Station.

2012–2014 | The 18.8 miles (30.3 km) of railroad track between St. Albans, Vt. and the U.S.-Canadian border was upgraded to allow future passenger trains on this stretch of track to operate at a maximum speed of 59 miles (95 km) per hour.

UPDATED – 2013 | The Quebec Ministry of Transportation prepared a study of the rail connections between Montreal, QC and the U.S. Border and evaluated those routes for intercity passenger rail operations at 59 mph, 79 mph and 100 mph. (95 km, 127 km, and 130 km/h) ( Study of CN and CP’s Rail Network between Montreal and the U.S. Border )

2014 | Amtrak, with the financial support of NYSDOT, the Vermont Agency of Transportation, and Ministry of Transportation of Quebec, and working through the Agence metropolitaine de transport prepared a “Feasibility Study for the Development of Canadian and American Customs on Platform 23 of the Montreal Central Station.”

March 16, 2015 | The United States and Canada signed the “ Agreement on Land, Rail, Marine, and Air Transport Preclearance Between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of Canada. ” The agreement, among other things, allows for the establishment of a preclearance facility in Central Station.

August 31, 2015 | At 39th Annual Conference of New England Governors and Eastern Canadian Premiers a “ Resolution Concerning the Canada-U.S. Preclearance Agreement and Customs Preclearance Project for Central Station in Montreal ” is adopted.

December 2016 | The U.S. Congress passed H.R. 6431, the “Promoting Travel, Commerce, and National Security Act of 2016” , which allows for the expansion of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection preclearance facilities in Canada. This bill was signed by President Obama on December 16, 2016.

July 18, 2017 | Amtrak operated a special trip in conjunction with New England Central Railroad, Canadian National Railway for government officials from the US and Canada, to inspect the route between St. Albans, Vermont and Montreal, Quebec.

December 12, 2017 | The Canadian government passed into law Bill C-23, the “ Preclearance Act, 2016″ which allows for the establishment of U.S. Customs and Border Protection preclearance facilities in Montreal Central Station.

September 2018 | At a meeting of the Eastern Border Transportation Coalition (EBTC) it was reported that Canada is working to complete the necessary “rail mode” regulations for Land, Rail, and Marine Transport Preclearance by 2020.

August 15, 2019 | The Government of Canada announced that Canada and the U.S. have brought into force the Agreement on Land, Rail, Marine, and Air Transport Preclearance between the Government of Canada and the Government of the United States of America.

September 2019 | Amtrak issues a letter of intent to the states of New York and Vermont, and the Province of Quebec, to expedite the effort to establish a preclearance facility at Montreal Central Station and related infrastructure improvements between the border and Montreal.

March 2020 | At a meeting of the Empire State Passengers Association an Amtrak representative announced that the parties involved with this project are now updating the previous study work (related to rail preclearance at Central Station) and that the environmental and other review processes would be completed in 2020.

Studies to evaluate connectivity and security issues along the corridor between Central Station and the border, as well as a detailed design study of the needed modifications is expected to move forward in 2021.

November 15, 2021 | President Biden signed into law the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The law includes a provision that requires Amtrak to submit a report to Congress that identifies challenges to Amtrak’s operations in Canada, and a set of recommendation to improve service — including the feasibility of and costs associated with a preclearance facility or facilities. The report is due no later than November 15, 2022. ( Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act , Pub. L. 117-58, §22212, November 15, 2021)

December 16, 2021 | The Quebec Ministry of Transport said that it will lead a study of facilities at Montreal Central Station, coordinate with Canadian Federal agencies, and manage the construction of the new preclearance facility, according to a project update that was provided by the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) to the Vermont Rail Advisory Council.

It was also reported that the Quebec government is also now working with Canadian National Railway to identify the track upgrades, between the international border and Montreal Central Station, that will be required before this service can start.

March 22, 2022 | The Quebec Ministry of Finance released its Budget Plan for 2022-2023. The plan included CA$ 1 million (~US$ 800,000) to finance Québec’s contribution towards the completion of a feasibility study and the design of project plans and specifications for a rail passenger preclearance/ clearance facility at Montreal Central Station.

September 22, 2022 | At a meeting of the Vermont Rail Advisory Council, VTrans reported that there was a meeting in August with all of partners working on the project. Next steps include the scoping study by Quebec and then the engineering effort. VTrans also said that there is support for this the project at the highest levels of government in both Canada and the U.S.

August 2022 | The Québec government announced that the Société de Québecoise des Infrastructure (SQI) would be the lead agency overseeing a CA$1 million study to evaluate connectivity and security issues along the corridor between Montreal Central Station and the border, as well as a detailed design study of the needed modifications that is expected to move forward with the project.

When are you planning this trip? The border is currently closed, although there is some speculation that the border-closure will be lifted on 7/21/21.

Where in VT?

The train, that runs just outside the VT border in NY State, might be convenient. But we'd need to know where exactly in VT you;d be starting to say which would be best.

Of course that's for when/if the border opens.

Distance between Vermont and Montreal

Driving non-stop from vermont to montreal.

How far is Montreal from Vermont? Here's the quick answer if you drive this relatively short distance without making any stops.

Nonstop drive: 154 miles or 248 km

Driving time: 2 hours, 46 minutes

Even though you can drive this distance straight through, it might be more interesting to stop along the way. You can scroll down to calculate how many hours it would take if you drive with stops .

Flying non-stop from Vermont to Montreal

Now let's assume you have a private jet and you can fly in the fastest possible straight line between Vermont (VT) and Montreal, Quebec. Because of the curvature of the Earth, the shortest distance is actually the "great circle" distance, or "as the crow flies" which is calculated using an iterative Vincenty formula.

Flight distance: 109 miles or 176 km

Flight time: 43 minutes

The straight line flight distance is 45 miles less than driving on roads, which means the driving distance is roughly 1.4x of the flight distance.

Your plane flies much faster than a car, so the flight time is about 1/4th of the time it would take to drive.

This is a relatively short flight in a private plane, but you might be planning to book a commercial flight. In that case, your travel time would really need to include how many minutes to get to your local airport, wait for security, board and taxi on the runway, land at the other airport, and get to your destination. Scroll down to see a more realistic calculation that takes into account all these factors to get a more accurate estimate of your actual flight time .

Vermont to Montreal road trip

Let's say you're actually planning a road trip to Montreal, and you want to stop on the way to explore. If it's a real road trip, you might want to check out interesting places along the way, or maybe eat at a great restaurant. That's what Trippy is perfect for, helping you figure out travel plans in detail.

Road trip: 1 day of driving

With the full itinerary planned out, we can estimate your total travel time for this trip.

Travel time: 3 hours on the road

Start at Vermont .

Drive for about 1.5 hours , then stop in Saint Albans and stay for about 1 hour. Next, drive for another 54 minutes then stop in Saint Jean Sur Richelieu and stay for 1 hour. Drive for 32 minutes then stop at Mont Royal and stay for 1 hour. Finally, drive for about 5 minutes and arrive in Montreal .

Vermont to Montreal airports and flights

In the quick calculation above, we assumed you had a private plane and just wanted to know the time in the air from city to city. But for most of us, we're going to be flying on a commercial airline (whether it's first class or coach). So that means we really need to account for all the extra travel time getting to the airport, waiting for our flight, and making it to the destination.

To give you a better estimate of real-life travel, we've put together a flight itinerary with actual airports. Eventually you'll be able to customize this plan, choosing your own airports and flights. But for now, here's an example we've selected to give you an idea of how traveling might work between airports.

Departure airport: Burlington International Airport (BTV)

Arrival airport: Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL)

With the airports selected, we can estimate the travel time to and from the airport, based on how far the airport is from downtown.

Getting to the airport: 111 minutes

Getting to your destination: 26 minutes

Now finally, let's look at an actual flight from BTV to YUL and figure out how long it would take to fly including take-off and landing, and time to taxi on the runway.

Commercial flight time: 43 minutes

So now we can finally get an idea of the total travel time from Vermont to Montreal including time spent getting to/from the airports, an estimated wait time of 2 hours at the airport for TSA security lines and waiting at the gate, and the actual flight itself.

Total travel time: 5 hours

27 top places to see fall foliage in the u.s..

Plan a weekend escape or an extended getaway to see autumn's peak foliage.

The Top Places to See Fall Foliage

Getty Images

Hit the road or the trail to view vibrant fall leaves across America.

There's no other time of year quite like fall. Brisk, cool mornings give way to sun-warmed afternoons, and the dropping temperatures create a kaleidoscope of colors as the leaves change before winter sets in. The displays of color are different across the U.S., but they're all brilliant when leaf-peeping season is at its peak.

In the West, the reds, oranges and bright golden hues of the quaking aspens are dramatic against the backdrop of the mountains and the verdant pine, spruce and fir trees. In the Northeast – such as New England – and other parts of the country where species like maple and birch are prominent, the trees are radiant with bold displays of yellows, deep reds, coppers and oranges.

Peak leaf season varies by region and by year, depending on the weather, so it's best to check with local sources before you go. Many top destinations to view fall's splendor have leaf and foliage maps and trackers so you can follow the local predictions and current conditions – and arrive just in time for the best of the season. Some of these destinations will be familiar, while others are lesser-known locales where you can capture and embrace fall's beauty.

So, pack your jacket and jeans, then grab your camera to capture one of nature's most spectacular spectacles.

Acadia National Park, Maine

Acadia National Park covers nearly 50,000 acres along the rocky coast of Maine. Located about 160 miles northeast of Portland , the park boasts the diverse natural beauty of the Atlantic shoreline, including majestic mountains. Peak leaf season in Acadia traditionally falls in the middle of October. This is when you'll see the vibrant displays of oranges, reds and yellows, especially along the Acadia All-American Road, one of the best scenic drives to view the fall colors.

While visiting Acadia, plan to stay at the nearby coastal town of Bar Harbor , considered to be the gateway to the park. Bar Harbor Inn & Spa , situated along picturesque Frenchman Bay, is an outstanding choice for an overnight stay: The historic property offers impressive views of the water as well as Maine's Porcupine Islands. While in town, you can take a whale watching tour and treat yourself to a traditional lobster dinner at Beal's Lobster Pier.

McKenzie River Scenic Byway, Oregon

Melanie Griffin | Courtesy of Eugene, Cascades & Coast

The 34-mile McKenzie River Scenic Byway extends from the vineyards of the Willamette Valley to the forests of the Cascade Mountains in Oregon , treating travelers and road-trippers to views of some of the Pacific Northwest's most beautiful landscapes. Plan your visit for peak season when the golds and reds are most vibrant, usually in mid-October.

The McKenzie River boasts some of the best fly-fishing in Oregon, so anglers will want to cast off for native redside rainbow and cutthroat trout along the way. Other highlights include stops at local farm stands, at the historic McKenzie Hatchery in Leaburg and at Goodpasture Bridge in Vida, which is the state's second-longest covered bridge. For an extended romantic getaway that includes days spent fly-fishing, whitewater rafting and hiking to waterfalls, make reservations at the Eagle Rock Lodge, a bed-and-breakfast for couples in Vida.

The Berkshires, Massachusetts

Situated about 130 miles west of Boston and surrounded by mountains, the Berkshires are one of the most scenic places in Massachusetts to view the foliage. The leaves begin changing at the end of September, but peak season starts around mid-October. You can expect to see colors ranging from golden yellows to vivid oranges to deep reds. If you're up for a hike, take the Stony Ledge trail from the Williamstown side of Mount Greylock, the highest peak in the Berkshires at nearly 3,500 feet. This route offers one of the best viewing points of the foliage from midway up the mountain.

Back on the ground, the Berkshires feature world-class arts and entertainment offerings plus a deep-rooted food culture with many locally focused dining options. You can also explore the apple orchards and hops farms along the Berkshire Beer and Cider Trail. For accommodations , plan to splurge on a stay at The Williams Inn, an upscale hotel with a contemporary design that emulates local farmhouse architecture.

Charlottesville, Virginia

Located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in central Virginia, Charlottesville offers spectacular scenery accentuated by fall's vivid hues. Mid-to-late October is when you'll usually see the most dazzling red, orange and yellow leaves, but the colors can linger into early November, depending on the weather. Some of the best viewing spots with scenic overlooks are along the neighboring Blue Ridge Parkway and the connecting Skyline Drive in nearby Shenandoah National Park .

When you're not leaf peeping, plan to visit Thomas Jefferson's Monticello, the former home, gardens and grounds of the third U.S. president. Travel along the Monticello Wine Trail to sample some of Virginia's award-winning vintages at wineries such as Michael Shaps Wineworks, Barboursville Vineyards and Jefferson Vineyards. In the evenings, travelers can unwind over dinner and enjoy live music at The Mill Room before settling in at the historic Boar's Head Resort .

Payette River Scenic Byway, Idaho

Payette River Scenic Byway's 114-mile drive in Idaho begins west of Boise and heads north on state Highway 55. Depending on the year's weather patterns, travelers can see changing leaves as early as the end of August, but peak leaf season typically arrives in early to mid-October.

Highlights along this route include whitewater rafting in Cascade and camping overnight in Lake Cascade State Park. For an extended getaway, make plans to stay at Shore Lodge , a premier property in McCall. Situated on Payette Lake with the Idaho Rockies as the backdrop, this beautiful resort offers plenty of outdoor adventures to see the foliage. Try your hand at off-roading on an all-terrain vehicle or explore the shores around the lake by canoe or boat. You can also go hiking in Ponderosa State Park or relax in the soothing waters of nearby natural hot springs.

Bucks County, Pennsylvania

Courtesy of Visit Bucks County

Bucks County's picturesque country roads and covered bridges create an idyllic setting for viewing fall's colorful palette. Located in the southeastern part of Pennsylvania and bordered by New Jersey and the Delaware River to the east, Bucks County has a rich Revolutionary War history and is known for its thriving cultural and arts community. Peak leaf season typically runs the last two weeks of October, bringing vibrant hues of yellows, oranges, reds and browns to the area.

For a scenic escape to the Pennsylvania countryside, make reservations at The Inn at Barley Sheaf Farm, a luxury B&B in Holicong. You can spend your brisk fall days exploring the shops and restaurants in New Hope or checking out the annual Scarecrows in the Village display at Peddler's Village in Lahaska. Visitors may also want to take a self-guided driving tour of Bucks County's 12 covered bridges or sip and savor local wines along the Bucks County Wine Trail.

For a unique way to see the foliage, get a designated driver and plan a road trip around the Hudson Valley Wine and Craft Beverage Map, which features more than 100 wineries, breweries, cideries and distilleries.

Anchorage to Kenai, Alaska

The epic landscapes of Alaska are awash with vibrant reds, purples, yellows and oranges – and even snow-capped mountaintops – from late August through September as fall arrives in the Last Frontier. The autumn colors across the state's vast wilderness, forests and tundra change quickly as winter approaches, beginning in mid-to-late August in the Arctic regions and lasting as late as October in southern areas like Tongass National Forest.

Be sure to save up enough energy to chase the aurora borealis in the wee morning hours, as the northern lights dance across the night sky from August to April in Alaska .

The Poconos, Pennsylvania

One of the best ways to view the Pocono Mountains' vibrant fall hues of reds, yellows and oranges is with a scenic drive along U.S. Route 6 in Pennsylvania. This road meanders through charming towns like Milford, Hawley and Honesdale, where you can take in autumn festivities that include the Hawley Harvest Hoedown and Honesdale's Harvest and Heritage Days. Another optimal viewing spot for the foliage is the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area with its 70,000 acres of forests and wetlands, the two tallest waterfalls in the state, and more than 150 miles of hiking trails.

The peak season for vibrant leaves in the Poconos depends on the region (north or south) and the progression of temperatures in the fall, but you can typically expect the best viewing from the last week of September through October. For up-to-the-minute information, check the fall foliage forecast on the Poconos Mountain website . After a busy day of exploring, The French Manor Inn and Spa is the perfect place to kick back, relax and admire even more of autumn's beauty.

Mount Rainier National Park, Washington

The majesty of Mount Rainier, with its summit reaching 14,410 feet above sea level, is even more breathtaking surrounded by fall's vibrant colors. While you can see the peak from miles around, a drive through Mount Rainier National Park can bring you up-close viewing of the spectacle. Top leaf-peeping areas include the White Pass Scenic Byway to the Chinook Pass via Bethel Road – if you have a high-clearance vehicle. Visitors may consider making a side trip to Cash Prairie to see Rattlesnake Drainage and Bismark Peak before venturing on to Timberwolf Mountain. Peak season to capture the brilliant crimsons, ambers and golds can vary, but it typically occurs between mid-October through early November.

While in the park, enjoy other favorite fall activities such as foraging for local mushrooms – chanterelles, hen-of-the-woods and matsutake, for example. You can also book an early-morning Elk Bugling Tour at Northwest Trek to see the Roosevelt elk sparring during their "rut," or breeding season. For rustic accommodations to enjoy the great outdoors while visiting the park, reserve a cabin or campsite at Mounthaven Resort.

New York City

While many leaf-peepers gravitate toward New York state's forested countryside, New York City is also home to some of the best locations to enjoy autumn's hues. Peak color typically hits the city in late October to early November, often arriving a touch behind the rest of the state. Use Central Park's fall foliage map to check color progress, then meander along its winding paths to soak in the yellow, russet, maroon and purple leaves of 18,000-plus trees from eight different species. Once the sun sets, head to one the many nearby Broadway theaters to catch a show or walk down to Times Square for a different display of dazzling colors. To ensure the best fall foliage views in the morning, grab a luxury suite at the art deco-inspired JW Marriott Essex House New York .

If the crowds of Manhattan aren't your cup of tea, head to Brooklyn 's Prospect Park for a warm display of orange and red leaves. The Ravine, a densely wooded area at the park's center, will offer the best autumnal views.

North Conway, New Hampshire

For prime autumn foliage in one of the best small towns for an adventure, head up to North Conway in New Hampshire. Located roughly 85 miles north of Portsmouth, this small town is encompassed by the White Mountain National Forest and is home to Mount Washington, the tallest peak in the Northeast. With dozens of foot hike options through the surrounding 700,000 acres of protected forest, there's no shortage of leaf-peeping opportunities. Peak colors typically paint the landscape with vibrant hues of red, orange and yellow in the first two weeks of October.

A ride along the Kancamagus Highway – affectionately called "The Kanc" by locals – is a must-do. The 34-mile scenic drive will immerse you in a fall wonderland as it winds through the New Hampshire countryside, but make sure to fill your tank before you set off, as there are no gas stations or stores along the highway.

While you're in the area, don't forget to indulge in North Conway's other unique activities. Enjoy the perks of tax-free shopping at Settlers Green Outlet Village, for example, or grab a chairlift ride at Cranmore Mountain Resort. If you decide to hop aboard the historic Conway Scenic Railroad, experience 360-degree views of the fall foliage in the Premium Class Dome Car on the 1950s-era Transcontinental streamlined train.

North country to montreal amtrak rail closure extended.

Jun 10, 2024 —

Amtrak passengers looking to travel further north than Saratoga Springs will now have to wait until the summer is over. 

According to the Adirondack Explorer , the shutdown of Amtrak’s rails between Rouses Point and Montreal has been extended until September 9th. That’s triple the time it was initially supposed to be offline. 

The shutdown, which began late last month, is for upgrades to make the service functional in high temperatures. Last summer, heat prevented rail traffic on that stretch for nearly 80 days.

Amtrak suspends Adirondack line until September

PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. (WCAX) - Amtrak service on the Adirondack line between Saratoga Springs and Montreal will now be out of service until at least September 9, scuttling the busy summer travel season.

Amtrak last month initially said a six-week repair project to tracks in Quebec would last only about six weeks, or until June 30. But over the weekend officials confirmed all service between Saratoga Springs and Montreal will now be suspended for the heart of the tourism season in the North Country.

“People started telling us, ‘Hey, my train was canceled to Montreal in August or in September,” said Empire State Passengers Assoc. executive director Steve Strauss. He says it wasn’t until after looking on Amtrak’s website that he learned the deadline had been quietly pushed until this fall. “Let’s be honest. Tell the public what is going on. Why is this work not happening -- if it’s not happening -- and what are they, the two railroads, doing to correct this situation.”

It comes as the service has struggled to bounce back to reach pre-pandemic ridership. Last summer, three months after resuming service after a nearly three-year pause for COVID, the service shut down in June north of Albany due to a Canadian regulation that greatly reduced speeds on hot summer days.

North Country officials Monday said they were frustrated about another summer without Amtrak’s Adirondack line. North Country Chamber of Commerce president Garry Douglas in a terse statement Monday called the new developments a “comedy of mismanagement.”

Related Stories:

Amtrak to once again suspend adirondack line, amtrak service rolls back into northern new york, just 3 months after restarting, amtrak service suspended in northern new york, back on track: amtrak’s adirondack train returns to the north country.

“The old line of frustration about “what a way to run a railroad” was meant for this ludicrous situation,” Douglas said. “A rail service is shut down for three years during and well beyond the pandemic but you don’t use that time to address conditions. Then you restart in April 2023 only to seemingly just discover a heat-related rail issue a few months later leading to last summer’s shutdown. Then you wait until almost summer 2024 to reach a repair agreement that now you find will take three months instead of the announced six weeks to be carried out.” Douglas says he is hoping the state’s congressional delegation can obtain some accountability.

Plattsburgh Town Supervisor Michael Cashman says the suspension is raising concerns about transportation for local students and how it could impact tourism and commerce during the peak summer season. “There should be a much more strategic approach to this so that it is not hampering our ability for inflow and outflow of people into the region every year,” he said.

The Monday, April 8, 2024, total solar eclipse crossed North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. The total solar eclipse began over the South Pacific Ocean. Weather permitting, the first location in continental North America that experienced totality is Mexico’s Pacific coast at around 11:07 a.m. PDT.

The path of the eclipse continued from Mexico, entering the United States in Texas, and traveled through Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Small parts of Tennessee and Michigan also experienced the total solar eclipse. The eclipse entered Canada in Southern Ontario, and continued through Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Cape Breton. The eclipse exited continental North America on the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland, Canada, at 5:16 p.m. NDT.

This table provides the time that totality began in some U.S. cities in the path of totality. These areas also experienced a partial eclipse before and after these times.
