So far, after much trying, I've found that it's $17.85 from Portland Maine to Boston. Cannot get beyond that, it wants such specific information, and won't give a schedule to guess from. You're not stupid, Amtrak's site is badly designed.

Mayb Sandra (Tattsxx11) would know Boston to NY train schedules? I know her husband sometimes works in NYC, but I don't know whether he drives down or what.
The Acela (fast amtrak train) runs from Boston to NY, and then there's a train from NY to florida, so that's how you could do it. (however, there are 2 stations in Boston - one you would arrive in from Maine, and one you depart from to NY, so you'd need a taxi or something to get to the other station)

Here's a scedule from Boston to NY:

and here's the train from NY to Florida:
