WASHINGTON — Amtrak ridership grew 5% in the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 2025, and revenue surged 11%, as robust Northeast Regional gains offset fewer Acela frequencies on the Northeast Corridor. The railroad carried nearly 34.5 million passengers, while ticket revenue was $2.764 billion.
The results from the company’s monthly performance reports for 2025 are now posted on the Amtrak website.
well they’re attempting that with Brightline West, but I haven’t heard anything positive from them in a while. I agree though, the tracks are there, even if it’s not super duper fast I know that corridor, I can’t imagine every person driving that is super thrilled to be driving. I’m sure a good chunk of them would be willing to add an hour or two on to not have to drive, and let’s be real you don’t need a car in vegas.
