Also note that the track arrangement changed quite a bit between 1952-1954.</p> <p>The Boston and Maine Railroad Show, has a segment called "By Streamliner to Portland" that shows a few clips of the new Fore River Bridge (US 1, which is no longer there) and of the Portland Union Station track arrangement. The video shows the 1954 arrangement. If you were to travel to Portland, Me, stop by Thompsons Point and take photos of the remaining portion of the train shed, which was re-constructed as a roof for an ice skating rink, its pretty neat.</p> <p> </p>
