21.4% of visitors are from a city along the NEC, and if taking Amtrak would transfer or board a Silver series train. Another 7.7% would connect to the Silver series at WAS. Raleigh-Durham's 1.6% would take the Silver Star.
Atlanta's 7% is nothing to sneeze at, but to do it, you need to negotiate with Norfolk Southern for a few slots. Track's there, just need some more stations to Jacksonville.
