LOSA/SALO has running rights probably as far west as Ayer, east to
Plaistow and south to Boston/Salem. So it can run where-ever
directed. The symbol is almost irrelevent.
As I stated, its usual trip itinerary is Lowell to Lawrence via the
Freight Main (Wamesit/CPF-LJ), where it assembles its train,
then works south to Boston. And lately, it turns at Winchester
instead of coming into the Big City.
The return trip 99% of the time goes directly back to Lowell via
the MBTA New Hampshire mainline.
