Not a bad start to the new service! One of the biggest advantages is that if you live north of Springfield and work in New Haven and Fairfield Counties, you will be able to commute. It all depends when your job starts and finishes. I can definitely see these new trains doing well with people traveling to NYC on business. Some people might even make a long daytrip to the city. Amtrak will want to do what it can to add cars to those trains as they will probably be packed.
