Rail car shortage blamed on postwar policies and strikes
Robert R. Young argues the Interstate Commerce Commission bears fault for rail overbuilding. The text notes wartime surplus cars retired in 1946 with fewer new cars built, plus coal and steel strikes curbing production, delaying a 10,000 monthly car schedule until mid-1947, and bumper crops reducing empty-haul opportunities.
