About East Wind

The East Wind was a summer passenger train between Washington, D.C., and resorts along the southern Maine coast. Travel time was about 11.5 hours over the 700-mile (1,100 km) route to Portland, Maine in 1941. Travel time was later reduced to 8 hours by 1955 although it terminated in New York City. The route was over the Pennsylvania Railroad from Washington through Philadelphia to New York City, then the New Haven Railroad to Groton, Connecticut, where it left the Northeast Corridor to reach the Boston and Maine Railroad at Worcester, Massachusetts, whereby it continued northeastward, bypassing Boston. The train continued over the Boston & Maine to Portland, where a coach and diner continued to Bangor, Maine, on the connecting Pine Tree Limited. In contrast to the other Mid-Atlantic to Maine trains, it was the only day and evening train.
