CTDOT has announced bus-stitutions for all Springfield Line service including the Vermonter for track work in Windsor, CT. Crews are working to complete the installation of double track from Hartford to just south of Windsor Locks. Additionally that same weekend MassDOT/Pan Am Railways will be performing bridge rehab work on the CT River Main Line north of Springfield. CTDOT, MASSDOT, and Amtrak coordinated the scheduling of the two projects to minimize disruptions.
- On Friday September 7th northbound Regionals 136 and 148 will terminate in New Haven and will be bussed to Springfield.
- On Saturday September 8th and Sunday September 9th all Amtrak Springfield Line service will be bussed between Springfield and New Haven - all CTrail commuter service will be bussed between Springfield and Hartford and trains will run Hartford to New Haven - the Vermonter will be bussed between New Haven and St. Albans.
- On Monday September 9th southbound Regional 141 will be bussed between Springfield and New Haven - the Vermonter will be bussed between New Haven and St. Albans.
- On Tuesday September 10th the Vermonter will be bussed between New Haven and St. Albans.
Beginning with the resumption of train service on September 9th CTDOT will be operating a reduced CTrail commuter train schedule until September 30th to accommodate the ongoing track work - during this temporary reduced schedule all Amtrak trains that participate in the CTrail commuter program will stop at New Haven - State Street station to help accommodate commuter riders during the reduced schedule period.
