Passenger Trains > Ticket questions

On an "Amtrak: eTicket and Receipt",
There is this.

"ADULT PWD MI
PWD MI ID AND CERTIF REQUIRED
COMPANION PWD MI
MUST TRAVEL WITH PWD MI".

What is " PWD MI".
What is "PWD MI ID AND CERTIF REQUIRED".
What is "COMPANION PWD MI".
What is "MUST TRAVEL WITH PWD MI".

PWD = Passenger With Disability

Thanks.

What is "MI".
What is "CERTIF".

My guesses:

"PWD MI" - Person with disability, mobility impaired
"ID AND CERT REQUIRED" - Identification and a certification of disability is required 
"COMPANION PWD MI" - Non-disabled person accompanying the PWD
"MUST TRAVEL WITH PWD" - The companion must travel on the same reservation and itinerary

MI = Mobility impaired?
CERTIF = certification?

Sounds like a ticket for two people, one of whom has a mobility impairment, the other of whom is their traveling companion.  Amtrak may be asking for some type of certification of the imparement, and restricting the companion to only traveling with the impaired individual at the price or in the accommodation quoted.  Just a guess on my part though - best call Amtrak if it's important to you.

Sounds like reasonable accomodations....distilled into a cryptic code.
