Railroads See Revenue Gain From Fare Increase
Eastern railroads project a half cent fare rise will boost revenues by about 30 million dollars annually. The Interstate Commerce Commission approved a 2.5 cent coach fare increase on eastern lines for a 18 month trial amid worsening finances. Commissioner Claude R Porter dissented, calling the move a grave mistake. Chairman Jesse Jones supported the plan, noting potential benefits for recovery efforts. The eastern network reaches from Chicago and St Louis west to the Mississippi River and south to Norfolk, Virginia.
