City light rail shouldn't come up in talk about railways. Compare Amtrak to other intercity rail operators if you want to compare

Rail shouldn’t come up in talks about rail. Okay, that makes total sense. Maybe pay attention to the fact that they are both passenger rail. One is inner city, the other is between cities. And the entire reason I brought it up was because I’m replying to a comment where they said amtrack is the most popular public transportation. You and them both need better reading comprehension.

What other intercity passenger rail operators are there to speak of? And what does that have to do with who owns the actual rails?

Brightline. That's the new one that keeps clobbering idiot Floridian drivers that insist they can beat the train.

But that doesn't hold a candle to Amtrak's coverage.

We don’t have any other intercity public rail. It’s all Amtrak
