Former Central Vermont RR station was moved a quarter-mile to a former St. Johnsbury & Lamoille County RR yard site.

The building has been completely restored for use as a museum.

In Google Maps, the StJ&LC tracks are still shown, but in reality are long gone; in the sat image, you can see the supports of a covered railroad bridge which spanned the Missisquoi River until it was burned by some high school kids having a party on it in 1987. A 1902 truss bridge, relocated from West Milton now spans the river here.
