Texas Rail Commission debates sleeping car rate cuts
The Texas Railroad Commission considers reducing both intrastate and interstate sleeping car fares. Proposals include lowering upper berth charges by up to 50 cents and a 20 to 30 percent cut on lower berths and seats. The move follows earlier actions by the commission that were blocked by federal courts, with voluntary reductions awaited from the Pullman Company pending Interstate Commerce Commission review.
