Four Months of War Board Gains in Rail Transport
Fairfax Harrison reports the railroad war board has unified 693 railroads into a continental system. In four months it reduced car shortages by 7 percent, boosted movement efficiency 16 percent from 1916 levels, saved 20 million train miles annually by trimming nonessential passenger service, and eased freight congestion by reallocating empty cars. It pooled coal cars and tidewater coal cars, increasing tank and freight car utilization, while coordinating 1,750,000 workers across the network and securing cooperation from shippers and the public.
