Subject
Summary:

The Northeast Corridor--the 460-mile railway route between Washington, D.C., and Boston--serves more than 100 million passengers each year and is a transportation linchpin for eight states and the District of Columbia. From 1988 through 1993, Amtrak and other users spent $3 billion to maintain tracks, signal systems, and stations; dispatch trains; and make capital improvements to commuter and high-speed operations. Despite these outlays, the corridor's infrastructure has deteriorated, and Amtrak estimates that about $2.7 billion is needed to bring the corridor up to a state of good repair. This report describes the (1) relative use of the corridor by Amtrak and the commuter and freight railroads, (2) sources of funding to operate and maintain the corridor, and (3) annual funding required to keep the corridor's infrastructure in a good state or repair and continue capital improvements at their historical rate.
