If the Vermonter ever gets to Montreal, it would not get there until at least 10:30pm, and then one has to go through pre-clearance, unless they run it earlier by having its southern terminus be NYC rather than DC. Not attractive.
I am all for putting it back on the Montrealer's schedule, even an hour of dwell time added in Springfield, MA to make for better times in Vermont. Then extend the Ethan Allen to Essex Jct and St Albans.
Whichever, there is no extending it to Montreal unless pre-clearance is built and certain infrastuctural demands on CN are made as well.
