This post initiated more interest/response than most. Since the Reply doesn’t go directly to your email, I wanted to bring your attention to it. (Click the icon at the top,of the post.).
Donna Droiun, in her reply, mentioned Connecticut River Transit. I have seen the bus but never knew much about it. I would encourage you to visit the website crtansit.org for more information. The map seems to indicate that they come across the river only to make a stop by Shaw’s but other services are listed on the website. I wonder what mountains would have to be moved to get VT and NH to cooperate on expanding this much needed service?
Marti Harrington‘s reply indicates that she is willing to lend a hand on an occasional basis and I certainly would be as well. I’ll bet there are more of us out there but we need a way to coordinate our needs with that willingness.

I also replied, but in the blog. There is long-term parking for Amtrak customers in the lot across the tracks from the Bellows Falls train station. One is just supposed to call the local police department to let them know you’re leaving your car there (I assume this is so they can check the lot to make sure the cars are okay, or so that they know the cars are parked there overnight for a valid reason, or both). There are signs posted in that parking lot with those instructions as well as the phone number to call. Hope this is helpful!
