Central of Georgia seeks higher excess baggage charges
The Central of Georgia railroad and other Georgia carriers filed with the state railroad commission a petition for a substantial rise in excess baggage charges when passengers check baggage and ride by car instead of train and later redeem their ticket. The railroad argues the practice deprives railroads of passenger revenue and leaves baggage transport effectively a loss. The road proposes relief via regular express rate on such baggage, the freight rate, or any reasonable rate the commission may set.
