A Portland to Portland corridor service called the Downcader, alternating runs with Talgo and Amfleet equipment.

Then to top it off run a tunnel from NY to Atlantic City. Rather than running it deep do it just shallow enough to create a bump just off shore to provide some sort of sand reclamation buffer for the beaches along the way.Boston - Fall River - Newport; then via tunnel to Block Island; another tunnel to Montauk; then LIRR to NYC.
