Other federally controlled rail systems. You're still ignoring the actual point.

dude im pretty sure disney world could arguably be classified as a private transportation company with how much transportation they have in their campus.

Of course amtrak is the most highly rated public transit system, it's the only fucking one that exists.

They are, its literally called Disney Transport and on top of that they have the cruise line contracts and partial ownership.

The fact it exists at all is my point.

yeah so why are we talking about amtrak being the higest rated public transit? The late soviet government was still a government.
