Thruway RVR <> CVS connecting to the Crescent will really tax the present consist. Once the Lynchburg train started the Crescent's average trip distance increased as the LYH & CVS passengers were locked out of the Crescent until the last minute. additional coach(s) and sleeper might be required but probably just to ATL. That might be enough traffic to make set off sleepers ( 1-2) and coaches (1-3) financially feasible.
In the future the best solution is a NYP - WASH - RVR - RGH - CLT - ATL. That would give NPN and Norfolk rail connections to those points as well.
