With "Spring" having started a day prior, things didn't quite look as such, as the region was receiving a nice coating of the white stuff. It's still early in the morning as we see Amtrak train 52, the Auto Train, headed north through Fredericksburg, already with a couple inches of snow coating the ground.
Amtrak's longest train takes passengers and their vehicles on an overnight trip between Florida and the Northeast while eliminating 850 miles of driving. It is popular with snowbirds and families.
For the train and storm chaser. Trains with thunderstorms, dark clouds, rain, lightning, hurricanes - tropical storms, funnel clouds, storm light, rainbows, and snow storms.
With Northeast Regional trains, Auto Train and long distance service to Florida, New Orleans and Chicago, a lot of train riding and train watching can be had.
