<p>In 2009 Amtrak's average cost per gallon of diesel was $1.85.  In 2013 its average cost of diesel was $3.32 per gallon.  This is an average increase of 79.5 per cent over the period covered. Over the same period of time the CPI increased by approximately nine per cent.  Amtrak uses fuel hedges to smooth the cost of its fuel, where it can, and does not pay the rack rates.  The dramatic run-up in its fuel costs is explained in part because several of its advantageous fuel hedges expired.  The same thing happened to Southwest Airlines, as well as a number of other transport companies.</p>
