Boston Considers Downeaster Link To South Station, East Coast Corridor

They operate push pull because there's no easy way to turn the trains at North Station. Extending Downeasters to South Station would allow them to go to Southampton Yard, and around the loop there in order to head north.

So they have facilities to turn the trains in Brunswick and Portland?
