Federal Court Rules Merger On Track For Nov 1
A three judge panel refused to delay the Pennsylvania and New York Central merger, clearing Nov 1 as the earliest possible date for forming the nation’s largest rail system. The ICC approved the plan in 1965, despite opposition from nine smaller railroads worried about competitive impact and needed conditions. The merged line would span 42,000 miles across 14 states and Canada, employing about 110,000 people and controlling major shares of mileage and revenue. The bankrupt New York, New Haven & Hartford would join, with commuter service at risk as the company says it cannot fund continued service after January 1.
