I honestly have to wonder why the line is OOS, given the condition it's in (the dilapidated signals not withstanding).
Also, as a side note, looking at street view, at least four of the mini-bells in the Auburn area are now gone.
As for the reason that the lower road is OOS, once passenger service ended and the yard is Brunswick closed, there was no need for the lower road because of the existence of the back road. Last train was in the 1990s, although a rerouted train went through in 2005 once iirc, and a Maine Eastern special in 2008. No trains can run on it now due to a removed bridge in Brunswick.
