Are they going to keep a trainset at Brunswick for 5+ hours? Or are they going to send it down to Portland empty? I'm assuming freight traffic must somehow be the reason for this, but I'll be curious to see which one they do.
Actually, the real issue is storage space in Brunswick and they may have to keep the equipment between trips in Portland.
