Vermont--The Gateway to the Green Mountain State VT9

White River Junction, a natural transportation center, is where highways, rivers and railways converge. In 1759, the rapids at the confluence of the Conn. and White Rivers nearly brought death to Robert Rogers and 3 Rangers. Vermont's first train ran from the Junction to Bethel in 1848.
