Amtrak is bringing back the domed rail car that offers panoramic views for riders of the Downeaster. The dome car is available through Sept. 24.
Ms Crosby talked about ridership trends, interest in seasonal route to Rockland, and expansion to Lewiston-Auburn.
The Downeaster is operated by Amtrak under contract to NNEPRA and is one of 15 State supported Amtrak routes in the country. Per this agreement, NNEPRA reimburses Amtrak to provide the equipment, train crews, Portland ticket agents and reservations services to support the Downeaster.
