a There are 92 stations on the national rail network that are served by both intercity and commuter rail. Data for these 92 stations are included in both the commuter and intercity rail categories. However, these stations are counted only once in the totals at the bottom of this table.

NOTES: The Intermodal Passenger Connectivity Database measures the connectivity between different modes of passenger transportation by counting the number of passenger transportation terminals and the availability of connections among the various scheduled public transportation modes at each facility. All identifiable regularly scheduled stopping locations, whether or not a terminal building is present, are considered terminals for this database. Data for Airports, Intercity rail stations, Commuter rail stations, and Passenger ferry terminals were collected from 2006-2010. Updating and collection of data for other modes is ongoing. When facilities of more than one mode are co-located, the facility for each mode is counted separately for purposes of total facilities. However, rail stations on the national network that served both intercity and commuter rail are included only once in the totals at the bottom of the table.
