Consolidation for Railroads Likely Under ICC Plan
WashingtonSpecial correspondence one of the most important tasks for the Interstate Commerce Commission is to draft a plan for consolidating railroads into a few large competitive systems. The plan, required by the 1920 transportation act, aims for comparable transportation costs and uniform rates across systems while preserving routes and trade channels. Hearings are underway as the commission weighs voluntary consolidations versus compulsory systems, with most mergers expected to proceed voluntarily to avoid water stock. The plan envisions a few large networks connecting major centers, allowing shippers to choose between competitive routes and reducing inefficiencies by centralizing management. The result would be easier negotiations for shippers and potential overhead savings, though implementation details remain complex.
