AMTRAK

The National Railroad Passenger Corporation

Amtrak is America's only national passenger rail service. It provides safe, comfortable and environmentally friendly transportation throughout the United States. From hometowns to business and travel destinations, Amtrak's 23,000 miles of track serves more than 500 communities nationwide.

Amtrak customers make approximately 21 million trips annually on Amtrak trains. Another 33 million people ride Amtrak-operated commuter trains each year. By joining with states and cities to meet the changing demands of local and regional travellers, Amtrak is now the largest provider of commuter service in the United States.

And to secure the future of national passenger rail, Amtrak is increasing capital investments in modern and safe technology and rail infrastructure. It will launch state-of-the-art high-speed rail service between Washington, D.C. and Boston in 1999.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C., Amtrak is comprised of three strategic business units --- Northeast Corridor (Philadelphia), Intercity (Chicago), and Amtrak West (Oakland). Its workforce of more than 23,000 employees is dedicated to meeting the needs of rail travellers nationwide.
