Colchester/Milton NECR Train Line

Hi all,

Relocating to Vermont for work at UVM, and currently shopping around for apartments or potentially homes to stay for the indefinite future. I saw a few homes in the Colchester and Milton areas that are cute, but they are pretty close to the train tracks (some you can actually see from the house).

Does anyone have any insight into that area of the state and the use/loudness of that train line? From my research it looks like 2 Amtraks a day, but maybe an unpredictable amount of freight? I'm wondering if it's heavily trafficked, if they move freight at all hours of the night, or if it's more like a freight train would more likely go by once a week during the day type of situation.

Any help would be wonderful!
