a Excludes international, rural, rural interstate, island and urban park ferries.
b Includes cable car, inclined plane, aerial tramway, monorail, vanpool, and automated guideway.
c Beginning in 1992, local operating assistance and other revenue declined by about $500 million due to change in accounting procedures at the New York City Transit Authority. Beginning in 1992, total operating expense declined by about $400 million due to a change in accounting procedures at the New York City Transit Authority.
d The total figure represents the number of transit agencies. It is not the sum of all modes since many agencies operate more than one mode.
e Based on employee equivalents of 2,080 hours equals one employee; beginning in 1993, based on number of actual employees.
f Includes cable car, inclined plane, aerial tramway, monorail, and automated guideway.
g Liquefied natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, methanol, propane, and other nondiesel fuels, except compressed natural gas.
h Beginning in 2002, the Federal Transit Administration changed the reporting threshold for injuries. Before 2002, essentially all injuries had to be reported to the National Transit Database. Beginning in 2002, only those injuries requiring immediate medical attention away from the scene of the incident are required to be reported.
i In 2002, the Federal Transit Administration defined major incidents as safety and/or security incidents resulting in: a fatality, two or more injuries transported for immediate medical treatment, property damage exceeding $25,000 (all property), main-line derailments, evacuations due to life safety, grade crossing collisions with injury or $7,500 damage, or rail transit vehicle collisions resulting in one or more injuries.
