    Bulk Cargo is a dying industry here in Portland. Most of the Bulk Cargo business has moved to Searsport and to Eastport. Now with CP and CN operating in Maine, most of the loads are north of Portland. One shed has already been dismantled on site; the others are barely used.

    If we were on the northeast corridor, things would be different. Washington DC, Philly, Etc where you would get the traffic required for a real station. Having restaurants, stores, etc are not in the cards. Just like the PTC, people come and go. Yes I would like all that, but its not realistic...
