Note also that the Downeaster Service has one supply base and several daily turns, meaning that there’s no need to have overnight lodging or supply bases around the country. It isn’t impossible for a private company to take it on (Xanterra? Sysco?) but it isn’t as simple as in Maine.

Caltrans has their own food concession service.
