Possibly thousands. This is south of Seattle. Because roads were given millions of dollars but railroads were given none and not nationalized, the railroad industry declined rapidly.

When I was a kid we would go to a train museum and they had a Zephyr there. They also had about 10 miles or so of track to run trains on and one weekend a year they would run the Zephyr on it with passengers. So one year we were lucky enough to get tickets in time. Holy shit that was the most beautiful train I’ve ever been on. From the dinning area to the coach and sleeper cars everything was top 1930s amenities. Damn thing even had A/C. And FAST. Think it got up to around 90 and it was as smooth of a ride as trains I’ve been on in the EU. But only America would throw away something like that to make even more money off of the automobile.
