Railroads praised for moving 1956 wheat crop efficiently
Frank Carlson of Kansas wrote to the Association of American Railroads praising the rail system for handling the 1956 winter wheat harvest without boxcar shortages. An AAR official notes the southwest yield reached 367 million bushels, up 57 million from 1955, moved with similar car counts as the prior year. The CSB helped move government stock from storage ahead of the new harvest. Delays in past years often stemmed from storage limits beyond railroad control.
