Portland Station is also where the Portland Amtrak Maintenance Facility for the Downeaster train sets was originally placed. Some facilities are still there so, please, don't go wandering through it, it's considered trespassing. If you must see what's going on in the facility park by the tracks near the grade crossing and watch from that end at 10 Thompsons Point Portland, ME 04102, 43°39'12.8"N 70°17'30.9"W. But, most of the work now goes on in Brunswick at night anyway.
