Book Description

Excerpt from Railroad Freight Rates in Relation to the Industry and Commerce of the United States The steps of the development of the freight rate strue tures have been largely attained through discussions, of which the records have disappeared, and through cor respondence no longer in existence. They remain in the memory of the veteran traffic managers who have readily imparted much of the information contained in these pages. Their recollection, however, has confessedly not always been exact as to dates, leaving it possible, in parts of the book, to show only the general sequence of the development.
