Amtrak only publishes total passengers per route.  It does not publish segment to segment numbers. They can be gotten by filing a Freedom of Information Act request.  Only problem with that is Amtrak can charge you $38 per hour for the research plus the cost of the materials and mailings. In FY11 the average load factor on the Chicago to St. Louis trains was 46.3%. The average loss per passenger mile was 4.1 cents, which was considerably below the overall average loss per passenger mile of 9.8 cents for the trains in the other and short corridor category. In FY10 the average load factor was 45.2% and the corresponding losses per passenger mile were 11.5 cents and 12.3 cents.   The Chicago-St. Louis trains improved their spread from the overall categorical losses from .8 cents in FY10 to 5.7 cents in FY11, thereby indicating a greater improvement in financial performance than the category as a whole.
