Proposed law would aid Panhandle rail projects
A bill in Congress, led by Senator Simmons of North Kota, would remove Interstate Commerce Commission permission requirements for new or extended rail lines. It targets Panhandle Plains where many proposals stalled without approval. Texas Senator Earle Mayfield backs a merger bill to include weak lines, and a second Mayfield bill limits ICC power to interstate traffic only. Local traffic officials note the bills for the region.
