A SURVEY OF RAILROADS OF SELECTED INDUSTRIAL COUNTRIES

This study represents the fourth edition of a series in which Union Pacific railroad has reviewed the financial results of selected nationalized railroads together with the financial status of U.P., Penn Central, Class I line haul railroads, Amtrak, Canadian National, and Canadian Pacific. The statistical data focuses on 1975 but provides relevant data on the four prior years to give perspectives. It still appears that nationalized systems compare unfavorably with privately owned systems.
