RevenueThis is the first month where Amtrak is reporting ridership for Amtrak issued multi-ride passes based on eTicketing rather than the previous methodology using estimates. As such, some routes will see a decline in reported ridership, especially those with a large proportion of riders using monthly passes. In order to ensure accurate comparisons between FY 2014 and FY 2013, Amtrak provided the FY 2013 eTicketing data as a base to compare the FY 2014 eTicketing data. This change in reporting has no impact on ticket revenues.
