Nice photo. I miss going to the local railroad station and watching/riding the trains. I'm curious to know how much passenger activity there was when the train stopped. The platforms look empty. It's good to see the train running but Amtrak is in need of funding.

Thank you! that station is also shared with MARC (Maryland Commuter rail). In terms of commuters, there was no more than a dozen for each train, although pre-COVID there we not too many either since it is right outside of DC and still in subway territory. Amtrak on the other hand, when I saw the same train in January it had two engines and seven superliner cars. A couple of passengers got on, about the normal for that station.
