The primary focus of this website is routes run by Amtrak, the national rail carrier.  Amtrak routes are divided into two main categories.  There are long-distance routes, which cross state lines and, as a rule of thumb, are greater than 500 miles from origin to terminus.  Long-distance routes usually have one train per day in each direction - or sometimes less.  Short-distance or corridor routes are generally less than 500 miles and have several trains back and forth each day.

For additional resources and schedules, see Amtrak's official website and also the national route map.
