This briefing was in response to a May 30, 1984, request from interested members of Congress that we evaluate the methodologies Amtrak used to analyze the market potential for reinstating passenger rail service through Oklahoma. As we agreed Ft the time of the briefing, this report provides a written summary of our result;. Our work assessed whether the revenue and cost projection models and supporting data bases that Amtrak used for the Oklahoma route analyses reasonably represented actual market conditions and costs for the proposed Amtrak routes. On the basis of our review of the models and data bases, we also evaluated the supportability of Amtrak's conclusions regarding the financial and ridership Qerformance of the seven Oklahoma route options. This report is based largely on information obtained from Amtrak and on interviews with Amtrak officials directly responsi- ble for the development and operation of the revenue and cost orojection systems and data bases we evaluated. Although there were some problems with the documentation of the revenue model and its data bases that precluded us from fully applying appropriate model evaluation methods, the information did allow us to provide iqnificant observations regarding Amtrak's current methodologies or estimating revenues on proposed passenger service routes.
