      <title>AN ECONOMIC HISTORY OF FIVE MIDWESTERN RAILROADS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/56815</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The study explains the four basic economic factors that affected the early development of railroads in the Midwest: growth of railroad regulations; increased competition from other modes of transportation; rate of return on investment; and empire building. The author then shows which of these factors was most important in the development of the five midwestern railroads being considered. In both reports, the focus has been on the midwestern railroads because the generally depressed economic condition of many of the railroads in this part of the country makes bankruptcy a strong possibility. One of the five railroads discussed--the Rock Island--is already bankrupt. The others are the Chicago & North Western, the Burlington Northern, the Milwaukee Road, and the Soo Line.]]></description>

      <title>STUDIES IN RAILROAD OPERATIONS AND ECONOMICS. RAILROAD RATIONALIZATION: BACKGROUND STUDY OF THE MIDWEST</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/76030</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Rapid increases in costs, particularly the cost of capital and of freight cars, continue to make a midwest rail crisis likely.  This report endeavors to show what the railroads and the federal government can and should do to restructure this rail system into a viable business enterprise.  The report's recommendations are based upon studies of aggregate financial, operating, and marketing information for CRIP, MILW, C&NW, ICG, BN, ATSF SOO, and MP, focussing on the region between Chicago, Milwaukee, Twin Cities, Omaha, Kansas City, and St. Louis.  Rationalization of operations and facilities in this region could, if combined with traffic growth, restore the financial health of railroads in this region.  The report provides estimates of the likely potential for improvements resulting from a number of rationalization possibilities.  A separate chapter is devoted in the Chicago-Omaha corridor, frequently cited as a glaring example of the need for line consolidation.]]></description>
