About AmTrak
Amtrak formed in 1971 after railroads in the US continued to lose money after decades of subsidizing airport and roadways, heavy government regulation of railroads, stubborn labor, and high local taxation from states. Amtrak took over 364 passenger trains and immediately reduced the number to 182. Amtrak in it's early years suffered from equipment shortages and redundant facilities. Amtrak took over the Northeast Corridor in 1976.
The first decade of the 21st century saw eight straight years of increased ridership due to rises in automobile fuel costs. In 2008, Amtrak set record ridership for the sixth straight year.
