Rode my first circulator from Union Station to the Navy Yard this morning. My thoughts:

The 2 new buses depart from the garage in the back of the station - I wandered about out front for 10 minutes before I saw a bus labeled "Special" go into the garage.

The ride was quick, the limited stops and elimination of the "loop" past the Navy Yard visitor gate and Maritime Plaza greatly cuts down on travel time. It took me 20 minutes, comparing favorably to walking (25-35 minutes) and the subway (20 min-30 min, depending on how long I have to wait).

Stays above ground, so I can still stream audio on my iPhone. This, plus the fact that it's cheaper than metro will probably make the bus my "go to" route when I don't have the time to walk (or it's raining). At least until the new bike center opens at Union Station - I'm almost sure that I'll get a bike and store it there at that point.
