Saw this on the VRS/Rutland discussion list. Sounds like it is from a local newspaper, but don't know which one:

It's the end of an era. The last train cars left on Morrisville,
Vermont's tracks were dismantled and began to be hauled away last
week.

The State of Vermont hired CJ Rail Services, a contractor out of
Scarborough, ME, to get rid of the snow plow (or flanger) and flat
cars parked by the old train station, and the engine left by the old
engine house, in Morrisville.

Fed Janci, principal of CJ Rail Services, said the state contracted
them to get rid of the rolling stock in advance of the tracks being
pulled up to make way for a rail trail.

CJ Rail Services dismantles obsolete and wrecked trains all over New
England. Janci and his crew used blow torches and crowbars to take
apart the old trains. Janci said this is his second working trip to
Morrisville. Five or six years ago he dismantled an engine stored
inside the engine house. Janci said the other engine parked at the
engine house is privately owned by a man in Hardwick.

After the tracks between Morrisville and Hardwick washed out, the
owner could not relocate his engine. Janci said the owner will be
taking the shell to that engine. The move will require a truck to
haul the shell and a crane to load and unload the shell.

Janci acknowledged the other trains he was dismantling were also
likely privately owned. However, he said, when it comes down to
moving the old trains from where they sit, the owners are not
interested in the hassle or expense. He said parts of the train cars
dismantled from the train station section of tracks will be going to
a railroad museum in St. Johnsbury.

I guess I should consider myself lucky to have ridden the entire line in June 1991, fulfilling a thirty year old dream. Was that the last trip over the whole pike?
