Short Line Railroads Return to Private Control
About 1700 short line railroads were returned to private management by the railroad administration just before Congress passed legislation to extend the decision period. Some 360 to 400 of the lines sought to stay government controlled, while roughly 400 remained part of the national system. The move aims to avoid unnecessary government expenses and address financial or tactical reasons for operation. The action was announced shortly before the legislation, and the final status hinges on Congressional action and future rate and service considerations.
