Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Community of Interests: Method of Regulating Railroad Traffic in Its Historic Aspects The public interest manifested in the method of regulating railroad traffic known as a "community of interests" suggest a brief statement in regard to the experiences and the existent circumstances and conditions which have led up to the adoption of that expedient. The Unification of the American Railroad System. From the year 1830 to about the year 1860 the railroads of the United States were, as a rule, disassociated. Each line pursued its own traffic policy, prescribed its own classification and rate sheets, avoided joint traffic arrangements with the lines of other companies and stoutly resisted the common use of cars and tracks. Different track gauges were adopted by the different companies in order to subserve the commercial interest of their several termini or points of intersection, as well for the purpose of avoiding entangling alliances incident to joint traffic.
