Interstate Commerce decision blocks lake rail rate hike
The Interstate Commerce Commission rejects an increase in lake and rail freight charges. It cites railroad control of Great Lakes shipping by interlocking systems and vast rail-owned lake vessels, arguing a monopoly harms western grain growers and reduces lake traffic. A future move to force divorce of boat and rail units could revive competition and benefit shippers.
