Supposedly CTC islands for the sidings; we really don't need a full signal system for the entire line. With any luck they'll pull the ABS signals between Poland and Merrill Road too, those can be a pain.

Your question about Saint John reminds me that I saw a set of empty well cars in a recent video of POED.
That was just going west. We're not supposed to use wells for the PS stuff going to Ayer, but there were a few that were just going back and forth empty.
That would almost certainly run counter to MaineDOT's clear goal of supporting Eastport, Searsport and Portland.
Eastport and Searsport are never going to happen with Saint John as close as it is, and Portland isn't big enough.
