I just returned from picking up my husband at the Amtrak station in Newport News, Virginia. I have never seen anything like it. The parking lot was full, the side lots were jammed, and even the road leading to the train was packed with not a spare place to park.

I parked NEXT DOOR at a health clinic and texted the hubby and told him where to find me.

He said the train was 100% full, and there were several people who had to stand in the train cars, due to lack of seating. Today, there were eight LONG passenger cars on his trek from New York to Newport News.

Amtrak is busy, busy, busy.
