It also permitted extending terminal rates to Pacific coast ports such as San Diego San Pedro Wilmington San Francisco Oakland Vancouver Bellingham Seattle and Tacoma. The ruling also set a maximum carload rate from the Missouri River to distant terminals for first and second class commodities at 1.72 dollars per hundred pounds when other rates apply to coast terminals.
