Report Description

I am pleased to submit the Amtrak Office of Inspector General Semiannual Report to the United States Congress for the six months ending September 30, 2021. For the past six months, Amtrak continued its recovery after its ridership plunged—losing 97 percent at one point—at the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. During this reporting period, however, ridership has significantly returned, and Amtrak appears to be at an inflection point in its 50-year history with significant plans in the offing ranging from capital projects, to acquisitions, and to proposed new routes.
