(rshsdepot) Champlain Flyer will permanently cease operation on March 1

["Kenyon Karl" <kenyon3_@_earthlink.net>]

An article on A2 of today's Valley News notes that the Champlain Flyer
(Burlington-Charlotte VT Commuter Service) will permanently cease operation
on March 1 due to very low ridership. :-( 

Note that I have just discovered that the Web Site for the commuter service
(at www.champlainflyer.com) no longer exists.
The Railroad Station Historical Society must note that the historic
Burlington Union Station (www.mainstreetlanding.com) will thus lose its
only train service, and that the new structures built for the service at
Shelbourne and Charlotte will likewise become totally unused.
