Maine Corp. upheld Amtrak's right to seize the Vermont section and resell it to the CV, the Montrealer resumed service on July 18, 1989. On April 2, 1995, the overnight Montrealer was replaced with the daytime Vermonter, with its northbound terminus truncated to St. Albans. The station has been served by the single daily round trip of the Vermonter since then. The station was used as a filming location for the 1999 movie The Cider House Rules. Writer John Irving commented that "Indeed, the Bellows Falls train station and its attendant buildings showed all the usual signs of neglect; it required only some period automobiles, and of course the steam engine and vintage passenger cars, to look like St. Cloud's, Maine, in the 1940s." In January 2020, the town of Rockingham considered purchasing the poorly-maintained station building from the Green Mountain Railroad for $120,000. This was soon scaled back to a $12,000 evaluation. In March 2020, the town applied for an equally-sized federal grant for the evaluation. In December 2021, the village Board of Trustees endorsed an application for a federal grant to cover $100,000 of the $250,000 purchase price. In March 2022, town voters approved spending $75,000 to purchase the station. In April 2022, the town select board approved an application for a $1.8 million federal earmark to partially fund a $4 million renovation, planned for 2024–25. The town won a $200,000 state grant, to be used along with the $75,000 to purchase the station, in June 2022.
