I think the CTA situation was a result of MILW either abandoning or giving up by eminent(?) domain a section of Chicago-area trackage that left a section with customers isolated. A deal was struck that had CTA move these cars to the isolated section, with MILW paying CTA a haulage fee.

Is this correct?

Reading moved lotsa cars down the 9th St. elevated that served Reading Terminal in Philly, some of which served the famous Reading Terminal Market.
