CPKC only goes east to Brownville Junction, Maine. CPKC owns the yard there and they hand off all the intermodal, autoracks, and in most cases the rest of the train to EMR/NBSR.
CPKC also owns the line south from Brownville Junction to Searsport.
Going the other way, EMR/NBSR drops off all their westbound shipments at Brownville Junction. CPKC delivers the NBSR to CSX freight (no intermodal or autoracks at this time) to CSX at Bangor. EMR/NBSR will deliver all their CSX bound freight (including additional intermodal at that point) directly to CSX at Mattawamkeag once they complete their upgrades. Stay tuned.
