I saw MOW engine with a NS 441 555 boxcar attached. Not sure how common that is.
The two extra Amtrak Turboliners are still there. Not much action on that front. Pics below...

That is a spacer car for the welded rail train. Amtrak has been getting many deliveries of new welded rail this year for the Corridor.

That's simply cause the CWR comes off interchange from NS.
