Quality Of Amtrak.

Rail Passenger Service

Still Hampered By Inadequate

Maintenance Of Equipment


The National Railroad Passenger

Corporation (Amtrak)


After 4-1/2 years of effort, U.S. rail passen-
gers cannot consistently expect ontime service
in clean and comfortable cars. If the public is
to be provided with acceptable service,
Amtrak must take more aggressive action to
minimize its longstanding and well-publicized
problems.

Many of these problems relate to the repair
and maintenance of passenger cars, locomo-
tives, and other equipment necessary to keep
trains operating. Amtrak's program to im-
prove maintenance has been costly, inef-
fective, and slow.

GAO is making recommendations to help cor-
rect the deficiencies noted.
