CSX is what you’re thinking of.

Amtrak is passenger only. They share track with CSX and many others.

Amtrak owns all their own trackage on the Northeast Corridor.
Actually, the track from New Haven to New Rochelle is not owned by Amtrak but by Metro North (the local commuter rail). Apparently Massachusetts (via the MBTA, also the local commuter rail) also owns the NEC in Massachusetts.
Good point. I always conflate the Empire Service and western ny train as that’s how I get to the corridor service!
