The Boston and Maine would join Nickel Plate, Boston and Albany to New York Central, and New York, New Haven and Hartford to Pennsylvania and B and O, with final details to be reviewed by Interstate Commerce Commission. Loree of Delaware and Hudson opposes the plan, proposing a separate New York Pittsburgh and Chicago route.
