It was also a way to achieve ROW for the electric utilities. High voltage electricity lines remain in places where the rails were torn out decades ago. As to overbuilding, I make no argument either way. There are those (Richard White) who allege the same about mainline RRs. Given the slow, crappy freight operations at present, I dissent. IMHO the history post Staggers is mergers were used to eliminate competition and shaft shippers, consignees. RRs in general have survived on bulk shipments not delivered on reliable schedules. |
