Supreme Court decision on rail rates supports separate passenger costs
A West Virginia case reviewed by E. Johnson of the Norfolk and Western Railway holds that railroads may not subsidize passenger rates with freight surplus. The court affirmed that each service must cover its own costs, and that reasonable freight surpluses cannot justify underpaying passenger transport. The ruling emphasizes fair dealing and that independent accountability applies to rail economics.
