    SEATTLE PASSENGER RAILWAY SERVICES

    Throughtout American Railroad History most railways in the USA carried both passenger and freight. However by the 1960, rail passenger services were in a state of general decline throughout the country.

    In 1970 the United States Government recognized the economic and social importance of our Nations Pasenger Railways by creating National Railroad Passenger Corporation-AMTRAK. Amtrak creation by the Government was to be a majority shareholder, offered to take over the passenger rail services, which were running at a loss. 26 railroad companies were eligible to participation in Amtrak Passenger Services,but only 20 took up the offer, and on May 1, 1971, Amtrak Service began

    Within a few years, the remaining railroads had transferred their operations to Amtrak, leaving the company with an effective monopoly of long distance rail travel in the contiguous United States.

    Regional and Commuter Passenger Services provided a different historical path, an for the most part unprofitable by the 1960. However support came mainly from State and municipal authorities, which are now operated by various companies under contract with operating railraods and in some cases Amtrak is the contracted operator under specific trading names.

    Various proposals for High Speed Passenger Rail Serevices are now being Studied for future establishment such rail services. These are generally State sponsored under Federal initiatives, were such trains operated on these lines in future could be operated by Amtrak or by other new passenger railway companies.
