The Poughkeepsie Route Freight Settlement Favoring New Haven
New Haven and rival lines resolved a dispute over freight routing near New York City. Reading and New Jersey Central traffic westward and coal moving to New England now use the Poughkeepsie bridge system, while southward fruit and local business go by the previous path. About 60 percent of New England-originating Freight from the two systems now travels via the Poughkeepsie route, with roughly 40 percent remaining around New York. In all, the New Haven gains about a hundred carloads daily onto long-haul traffic via the bridge. The dispute originally went to the Interstate Commerce Commission.
