Things are looking up for the Downeaster, with ridership not only going up, but exceeding expectations. The Portland to Boston train has become somewhat of a staple of the commuting crowd and looks to add to its daily roundtrips. We'll look at what's on track for rail in New Hampshire, including the Lowell to Nashua line and the Boston to Montreal line. Laura's guests are Kit Morgan, Administrator for the Bureau of Rail and Transit for the NH Department of Transportation and Peter Griffin, President of the NH Railroad Revitalization Association.
