HAMMOND RAIL RELOCATION PROPOSAL

This report, developed by the Railroad Relocation Committee and submitted to the mayor, is proposed to relieve traffic congestion in the Indiana city. The plan would relocate existing operations on a consolidated and greatly simplified track system to be used by all the railroads involved. The result would be elimination of many grade crossings and creation of no new ones. Existing lines of Penn Central would be supplemented with additional tracks to handle the trains of Chesapeake & Ohio, Louisville & Nashville, Erie Lackawanna and Norfolk & Western.
