On Thursday, January 28th, Maine Street Station was host to many local and state officials who announced that $35 million in stimulus money will be used to extend Amtrak passenger rail service from Portland to Brunswick by the end of 2012. The grant, which was made to the Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority, will create 200 new jobs in the short term and boost local tourism, thanks to at least two planned daily round trip trains to Boston. The increased foot traffic and visibility for businesses at Maine Street Station and downtown Brunswick will be measurable when these trains begin to roll.
"If you build it, they will come," remarked U.S. Congresswoman Chellie Pingree. Phase I construction at Maine Street Station included a train station, which was completed this past month.
