Now I know that there is/was CTC on the former CP line thru Maine, and I have a couple questions. First of all Does the MM&A use CTC on that line? and do they have any plans to install CTC to any other parts of the line?

CTC on the old CDAC was taken out of use imeditly upon the B&A takeover of the line in 1995. Their would be no plans on putting this back in service.

Correction: It was ABS (Automatic Block Signals), not CTC ( Centralized Train control ) and no, there are not any plans to build any signal control systems. If there where, it will be either Microcode by US&S or EC-5 Electrocode.
