In his political life he was a member of the Vermont house from 1828 through 1829 and Governor of Vermont from 1841 until 1843. Paine was president of the Vermont Central Railroad and built its headquarters in his home town of Northfield. In 1853 the Vermont Central Railroad went into bankruptcy due to over expansion and, in some cases, mismanagement. The railroad was placed under receivership and renamed the Central Vermont Railroad. Its headquarters were moved to St. Albans. Paine died in Waco, Texas after three weeks of dysentery while helping the Southern Pacific Railroad choose a route. He is buried in Northfield, Vermont.
