U.S. passenger railroad Amtrak said Wednesday it is eliminating 450 positions as it aims to cut annual costs by $100 million as future support from Congress remains uncertain.

Amtrak said through a reduction-in-force process, and cutting of open positions, Amtrak has eliminated approximately 450 roles that combined with other recent cost cuts "will help Amtrak save $100 million annually."
