NNEPRA partners with Pan Am Railways and our station communities in Maine and New Hampshire to review roles and responsibilities for snow removal.  Coordinating with Pan Am Railways’ Safety Officer and the facilities maintenance crews at each Downeaster station community, safety training is provided to ensure the snow is removed in a safe and timely manner. These meetings began with the start of Downeaster service in 2001 and have proven to be effective as there have been no reported injuries or accidents related to snow removal at any of the Downeaster stations.
