Is this a passenger or freight railroad? -- Beland 02:16, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
NECR itself owns the tracks and runs freight service. Amtrak also runs the Vermonter passenger service partly over NECR tracks. -- Delirium ( talk) 06:51, 15 June 2008 (UTC)

The article, almost since its creation, has claimed that the successor to the NECR is the Philadelphia, Bethlehem and New England Railroad. As far as I can tell, the PBNR is now Keystone Railroad Inc (see [1]) which operates solely in the state of Pennsylvania. The NECR is owned by Genesee & Wyoming which is a separate company from Keystone. Also the NECR is still operating under that name and hasn't been succeeded? Can anyone find good sources to clear this up? Thanks, Laplorfill ( talk) 20:24, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

There are some areas that are thin in references. Would newspaper coverage also help beef this up in places? I sure wish IABot was running right now, too. 7-day hold to
Trainsandotherthings. I do want to see some meat added to the bones here if that can be done.

Earwig turns up no issues other than a railfan site that seems to have taken our paragraphs and chopped some of them up for a summary of railroad history.
Five sources were chosen for spot checks:
New England Central, under Genesee & Wyoming Industries has completed the acquisition of multiple General Electric locomotives. NECR is one of nine railroads to receive the GE power [1]. It is unknown on what fate the SD40s have but it is assumed they're being sold or repositioned. The C40s have already arrived and are awaiting the paint booth after GWI completes the repainting of QGRY SD70MACs at St. Albans. Also, there once was a roster table that had all of the units, any idea of what happened to it? Should it be readded? JayfromVT ( talk) 13:37, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

The article says the Vermonter is routed along the NECR north of Northfield, Massachusetts. Satellite photos show a junction (presumably with the Connecticut River Line) just south of the Vermont border. It looks like this junction is missing from the route map, and should be added between Millers Falls, Massachusetts and Brattleboro, Vermont? -- Beland ( talk) 02:57, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
