independent auditor report, KPMG stated. “The company has a history of
substantial operating losses and is highly dependent upon substantial federal

for Amtrak “ because it more energy efficient, traveling by rail contribute less per
passenger mile to greenhouse gas emission than either car or airplane.
19. Earth friendly travel on the auto
train
“Save your car and help the earth everytime you ride”
It is no secret, the auto train is one of the easiest way to take your vehicle with you
on your trip without all the hassles that come along with long distance driving.
Riding the auto train save it passenger money on gas and time stuck in traffic on
congested road, lending a helping hand to earth along the way
20. How great is the auto train?
When you ride the auto train and take your vehicle off the road, you are giving
the earth a break by minimizing your impact on the environment
The auto train emits only about half the greenhouse gasses that would be
emitted if all the cars transported by auto train were driven on the highway.
And with capacity of up to 370 vehicle per train the svaing realy add up
21. Conclusion
