Rails Continue Rate Cut Fight Across 30 Counties
In Austin on January 10, thirty four railroads pressed to block the railroad commission from enforcing a 25 percent freight rate cut on livestock feed across 30 counties. Judge Roy C Archer heard 19 fact questions about whether the cut is discriminatory and confiscatory while a prior demand for a restraining order on legal questions was denied. The case adds nine Panhandle and North Texas counties to the injunction list as trials focus on counties slated to see reductions January 1 to March 1 amid poor weather.
