Central's option extended on Ontario & Western purchase
The New York Central extended its option for selling the New York Ontario & Western to the New Haven Hartford, with Wall Street anticipating an indefinite period. The move follows New Haven’s October purchase of control of the Ontario & Western to gain access to the anthracite region via the Poughkeepsie Bridge. Meilen said the deal aimed to protect New Haven and might be surrendered if a cross-Hudson arrangement with New York Central ended west-of-Hudson lines relevance. Ontario & Western holds rights on West Shore from Cornwall to Weehawken and terminal privileges at Weehawken, a friction target with West Shore likely to be reduced by central control.
