Baltimore and Ohio Loses Appeal on Rate Cut Alignment
Ashington June 14 The Baltimore and Ohio railroad will not receive the full 20 cent a ton lake cargo rate cut for coal mines in northern territory as approved by the interstate commerce commission. The line failed to include the full reductions in its filing and the commission refused to waive the 30 day waiting period. The reduction is expected to take effect later with a one month delay for Western Maryland Pittsburgh and West Virginia mines and for the Resemer and Lake Erie lines needing similar waivers.
