Railroads Seek Five Year Extension to Meet Car Coupler Law
Washington December 2 the interstate commerce commission opened hearings on extending the deadline for railroads to equip cars and engines with automatic couplers air brakes and hand rails. Representatives from hundreds of lines and labor groups pressed for a five year extension with staged equipment targets citing financial strain from the 1893 act and risk of traffic disruption if hesitation continued. Cowen representing Lake Shore argued for gradual compliance and warned that interstate commerce could halt without extension. Labor groups countered that wages and safety concerns demanded strict timing, noting casualties tied to noncompliance and urging protection of workers with funding rather than delayed implementation.
