While Anthony raises some good points I think we need to accept one thing as fact-commuter trains like Amtrack do not make money on passenger service alone. The last Amtrack I saw had 18 cars, and 4 of these were freight, one was baggage and another mixed post and baggage. Only 10 at the most appeared to be passenger cars (ie with windows, doors, etc). And I counted about 8 visible passengers as this train creeped through my city. Perhaps more than I give credit for were in the upper levels or on the side I couldn't see, but I doubt it was many. I think with the congestion and chaos of our cities, that traveling without your own vehicle is very difficult and unerving. Also, people today have the money and resources for long vehicle commutes thanks to better quality vehicles, nicer roads and better gas mileage. If you disagree with me, than please state your thoughts.
