I'm absolutely startled that Baltimore's BTUs per passenger-mile are so low for the heavy rail component... unless it's counting the inter-city MARC along with the rather useless Metro. I figured DC and NYC's numbers were so low due to the number of people jammed into each train.
Well, let's not forget that they finished the Baltimore Metro in 1983, which means it was started when energy costs hit a historic high. I wonder how they cut consumption so much to have such high efficiency per rider-mile when nobody rides the darn thing.
