History
Essex Junction station, also known as Essex Junction–Burlington, is an Amtrak train station in the city of Essex Junction, Vermont, United States. The station was originally built by the Vermont Central Railway in 1859 and replaced in 1959. It serves Amtrak's Vermonter train, which runs from St. Albans, near the Canada–U.S. border, south to Washington, D.C. Prior to bridge trouble at Alburgh, north of St. Albans, train service continued to Montreal. Until the early 1960s, the Boston and Maine railroad operated Montreal to Boston service on The Ambassador through the station.
