Newport is the interchange point between Central Maine & Quebec and Washington County, a Vermont Rail System reporting mark (VRS's 4 separate in-state marks functionally operate as a seamless system, though WACR is isolated from the others by a haulage trip on NECR). The junction at Main St./US 5 is the division post between CMQR's Newport Sub (turning sharply west), WACR's Upper Conn River Line sub running due south, and the old CP line to Sherbrooke to the northeast. Columbia Forest Products on the short remaining active stub of the Sherbrooke line is a CMQR customer, but WACR is tasked with handling the local deliveries to them.
