UPCOMING EVENTS
Missisquoi Valley Rails to Trails
Experience Central Vermont Railway’s Richard Branch from 1870 construction to 1992 abandonment and its Canadian Pacific interchange partner at the once bustling border crossing. Author and filmmaker James R. “Jim” Jones’s lively presentation tells rail tales from St. Albans to Richford, in words and colorful visuals. Jim’s Franklin County ties are lifelong. His dad, Robert Jones, was a 1952 RHS graduate; grandfather Cecil Jones the Richford train station agent, and grandmother Elsie an active community member for thirty years. Signed and numbered books are discounted at only $30 (cash or local check) and companion documentary DVDs just $10. All aboard!
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
