Long Amtrak Train Trip Starting 26 August!

I've recorded 2.7 Mbps both up and down. Free and easy to connect. Very nice of Amtrak unlike cruise lines who nickel and dime.

How has the wifi connection been on the train ? Seems it did start on time?

$9.50 for coffee and Egg and cheese bagel....hmm I guess the price is ok they could have charges a LOT more for a captive audience, so I appreciate it. Unlike when I recently went to see The Odyssey at an AMC cinema chain and was charged $8.98 for a large soda

The prices are very reasonable on the train!

Northern Virginia? Though this segment to NYC is not the prettiest of the four segments on my itinerary, it's still beautiful.

How full is the train ? What are the demographics of the passengers ?

My American geography is poor. Is this part of the Appalachian trail?

I'm in Charlottesville, VA station. It's not high Appalachian Mountains... maybe hills. No AT trail here that I know.
The train was half empty when started but after entering Virginia filling up. Vast majority seems like African American. That was the case when I took this train in 2004 as well. Yup after 22 years I'm finally on Amtrak.
