New Amtrak Service

Surprised no one mentioned the new train from D.C. to Norfolk, VA which started today.  Believe this is the first service to Norfolk sine 1977 (a train which I rode to Bluefield, WV and back).  Didn't get a chance to get a photo today but I do know they had one of the Amtrak heritage units in the lead and I believe some NS and CSX cars as well.
