Except for Amtrak that serves… Everything. There is no passenger tail service in the U.S. other than Amtrak.

I assume they meant that the service for DC specifically is better than elsewhere on account of it being local to congress.

Unless you are being oddly specific with your definition of passenger rail, there absolutely is.
Brightline for instance.

  Brightline is commuter rail. We have a bunch of little trains connecting to close cities. What we don’t have more than one of is passenger rail, where you can hop on a train in Seattle and get off in New York.

    From the article I linked:
    
    “This article is about the passenger rail service in Florida…”
    
    AFAIK the Amtrak route from Seattle only goes to Chicago, you would have to change trains to get to NYC anyway.
