Very true, @Creekland , at least 3 times on our Boston to Freeport ME trip we had to sit and wait for a freight train to pass through a single track area before we could proceed. All in all once we got into Maine the track passed close to the ocean, it was scenic. What made no sense was that the Portland ME station was no where close to city center, was located in a redeveloped area outside of town. Seemed to discourage folks from taking the train to a reall neat small city.
