March reports from Wall Street describe a renewed fight among major eastern rail systems over rights of way across half the country. The plan merges the Buffalo Rochester and Citronite line to the Baltimore and Ohio with the Wheeling and Lake Erie into Allegheny. The deal requires approval from the Interstate Commerce Commission.
