Interesting, but none of that really accomplishes what I am trying to do which is connect between Pensacola and St Augustine (or Jacksonville). Failing that connecting between Jacksonville and Tallahassee would also be helpful, but Amtrak doesn't seem to do that either.
When I moved to Tallahassee I was pretty disappointed to find there was no Amtrak service to the area. Sadly flying in and out of Tally tends to suck as well, with limited flights and expensive fares most of the time (once in a while you can find a good deal). There isn't even bus service from town to the airport, so you drive or take an uber.
