This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intercity passenger rail service is at a critical juncture in the United States. Amtrak, the current service provider, requires $1 billion a year in federal subsidies to stay financially viable but cannot keep pace with its deteriorating infrastructure. At the same time, the federal government faces growing fiscal challenges. To assist the Congress, GAO reviewed (1) the existing U.S. system and its potential benefits, (2) how foreign countries have handled passenger rail reform and how well the United States is positioned to consider reform, (3) challenges inherent in attempting reform efforts, and (4) potential options for the federal role in intercity passenger rail. GAO analyzed data on intercity passenger rail performance and studied reform efforts in Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a legislative requirement, GAO reviewed the National Rail Passenger Corporation's (Amtrak) feeder bus service to its network of intercity passenger trains, focusing on: (1) whether Amtrak is using its federal operating grant to subsidize the bus service; and (2) bus passengers' contributions to covering the cost of their train trips as compared to other Amtrak passengers' contributions. GAO found that: (1) Amtrak does not use federal funds to subsidize its feeder bus operations; (2) 15 of the 30 charter bus routes are part of California's state-supported system, which offsets the losses on 14 of its routes; (3) the revenues generated by California bus passengers more than cover the marginal costs of transporting those additional passengers on Amtrak trains; (4) the 13 charter routes outside of the California system earn more than enough to cover the full costs of the bus contract and the marginal costs of the bus passengers' train trips; (5) both bus and rail passengers benefit from the federal subsidy supporting the rail portion of their trip; (6) for the non-California bus routes, bus passengers pay about as much per mile for their train trips as the rail-only passengers; (7) passengers from several bus routes pay slightly less per mile for their train trip than other rail passengers; and (8) bus passengers represent net revenue to Amtrak and lessen the amount of the federal subsidy needed to operate Amtrak.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This testimony discusses the future of intercity passenger rail. Intercity passenger rail in the United States is at a critical juncture. It has become increasingly clear that the current approach to intercity passenger rail is not likely sustainable. Given Amtrak's worsening financial condition and opportunities for intercity passenger rail to play a larger role in our nation s transportation system, there is growing agreement that the mission, funding, and structure of the current approach to providing intercity passenger rail needs to be changed. There is less agreement on how they should be changed. Both longer-term fiscal pressures and the new commitments undertaken after September 11th sharpen the need to look at competing claims and new priorities. Stated differently, there is a need to consider what is the proper role of the federal government in intercity passenger rail.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Congressional Budget Office (CBO) study -- prepared at the request of the Senate Budget Committee -- reviews past policies toward Amtrak & the fundamental economics of passenger rail service. The review suggests that there are only limited conditions under which passenger rail service in the U.S. could be economically viable without subsidies. This study also explores the implications of four options for future federal support of passenger rail, ranging from eliminating federal subsidies to funding a massive expansion of rail service. In keeping with CBO's mandate to provide objective, impartial analysis, the study makes no recommendations. Charts & graphs.

Book excerpt: The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Recovery Act) and subsequent appropriations have dramatically increased federal funds available for high speed intercity passenger rail from $120 million in FY 2008 and FY 2009 combined to $10.5 billion available in FY 2010.
