Both Amtrak and the USPS are corportations, not government agencies.
I believe Amtrak is a for-profit organization that is subsidized (heavily) by various levels of government (Fed, State, & Local). As for the USPS, I believe it is a public, non-profit corporation that is also subsidized/funded by the US Government.
